Amidst the din of dinner prep and Offspring #2's pre-dinner crankiness Offspring #1 stood straight and tall and, in his biggest voice (without actually yelling), ordered "SCIENCE!"

We're guessing that it was all too noisy for him and he really meant 'silence' but we all got the idea! There was absolute silence for about a heartbeat, then hubby and I cracked up and #2 reverted to grizzling.
