If 3 year old boys designed cars

My truck died this week. Seeing as it was 15 years old and had 180000 miles on it I shouldn't be surprised, and yet it came as a shock none the less. So we bought a jeep liberty. It's nothing fancy, but I figured the kids would be impressed. Brook was appropriately enthusiastic. AJ on the other hand immediately started grilling me about the cars features. I'm always floored on how much of a boy he is. Girls ask what color it is, boys ask all sorts of things that girls just don't know the answer to.  They are born like that evidently. So first he wanted to know if it played movies. It doesn't. Then he wanted to know if the stereo can play music from his iPad. It can't. Then he wanted to know if he could sit in the back seat (this is what is commonly referred to as the third row). It doesn't even have one. And then...he asked me if it had a potty chair. I told him that I didn't even think that they sold cars with potty chairs. He shook his head at me like I was the saddest excuse of a car buyer that ever existed. We rode in silence for the rest of the way home. I think that he was giving me time to think about my actions. So, watch out, new in 2033, built in potty chairs come standard.
