SPA - the latest in satellite technology

When we went to PA last weekend, we borrowed my mom's GPS. Walker and Ellie were fascinated with it. There were lots of questions, so we basically explained that it was like a map on a little computer and it would tell us how to get to Pittsburgh. About 20 minutes in the trip, Walker broke a peaceful silence with a worried tone.

Walker: Daddy, Daddy . . .
Kurt: What?
Walker: You're NOT paying attention to the SPA.
Kurt: What?
Walker: The SPA.
Kurt and Carla: The what?
Walker: THE SPA! You know, the thing that tells you where to go!

More from Walker...

Saturday morning Dale was helping Walker with his clothes and tucked his shirt into his shorts. When I asked Walker why his shirt was tucked in, he laughed and said "Grandpa must have thought today was Sunday 'cause that's the day you tuck your shirt in". A profound lesson for us all.

Dale "Sgo Walker"
Walker "What's that mean?"
Dale "It's short for let's go"
Walker "Oh. We use real words at my house"
