Context: In the Maymount park nature center, near exhibits of James River fishies, David had just explained to me that he didn’t know (nor did I) that eels were the opposite of most fish.
Me: Why’s that?
David: Because most fish breed in rivers, then swim out to the ocean to live, but James River eels spend most of their lives in the River but swim out to the sea to breed.
Robert: (with confused look on face, pauses.)
But mommy, how will they get back into their tanks in the museum if they do that?!
