Little 4-year-old Eli classified himself as a "man" when counting the people in the room. Just for clarification, Dad pointed out that Eli was a "boy" not a "man." Eli looked puzzled and asked, "Daddy, what do men have that boys don't have?"
Dad and Mom looked at each other, thinking that Eli was considering biological differences, and wondered how to answer. Finally Dad replied, "You already have everything you will have when you're a man."
"No, Daddy," replied Eli, "you have a lawnmower."
