Beware of Dump Trucks

Kyler loves trucks! He likes to watch for them when we ride in the car and talk about what kind they are and what they do. He likes his books about trucks. He has a couple of cups with different kinds of trucks on them. The other day, while we were eating dinner, Kyler was discussing the trucks on his cup with Eric. He asked what a dump truck does. Eric told him that they carry things like "rocks and dirt and trees and dead bodies." Eric said the last item more quietly than the others, but still received quite the dirty look from me. Well, which one of those items do you think Kyler picked up on? That's right, dead bodies! The next morning at breakfast he told my mom and me that dump trucks carry dead bodies. We couldn't believe he remembered that. We both tried to contain laughs so as not to encourage his saying that, but it didn't work. Now every time he drinks from one of his truck cups he informs us that dump trucks carry dead bodies and then laughs.
