      ‘history’ maybe even more apt as even or estimations of the future are based on it

      Hello fellow parent. I feel your anguish. I have star wars and dinosaurs. Tbh I’m not even mad, most of the times… I’d just need some more time in the morning before the uninterrupted stream of words!

        Exactly. He’s turning into a Lego kid, but uh, did you know that Lego has trains? (They recently put out a gorgeous Oriental Express train that even I want now.). My biggest gripe about trains is they take up so so so much space.

        I am excited for his teenage years for when he wants to sleep in and I get to wake him up.

        But today is Christmas, and if you celebrate, Merry Christmas. (Mine is waking now, and it’s 430 am, time to stall him for 2 hours, as my daily gift to momma)

    The universe.

    Everything that has ever happened has occurred in the universe as far as anyone knows. Including all fiction.

    I had to listen to a guy talk about the fanfic he was writing for 4 hours. So anything but that I suppose.

    My husband talking about something he’s passionate about and makes him happy. It doesn’t matter what, I love how excited he gets when he’s explaining something that matters to him.

    Honestly, nothing. No matter how strong my interest is in something, it will eventually shift dramatically and I’ll have trouble listening to any other thing.

    Story telling I’d ask them to improvise or use known stories to give me examples, I now have stories for a lifetime

    Astrophysics/cosmology. I’m more artsy geek than STEM geek, but there is a tremendous amount of beauty found in what we know and don’t know about the universe.

    I’d pick J.R.R. Tolkien and Middle-earth, no hesitation

    Animal behavior. I never get bored learning about biology and specifically, all the interesting behaviors that animals have learned to reach their goals. Like elaborate mating dances, or long distance communication of whales.
