My son was telling a truly incomprehensible story earlier this week. At one time he moved his arm in a low arc and said these words..."Hawk true wonderland."

My wife stopped what she was doing and said, "What?"

Sasha looked a bit upset and repeated, "Hawk True Wonderland."

My wife turned to me for translation.

The correct translation was....

...

...

(spoiler below)

...

...

"The Hulk threw underhanded."

My wife just shook her head. While that sentence made sense, the story---well that is still beyond us.

I was trying to make it into Alice in Wonderland, but didn't think that worked.

Many years ago, I used to babysit our next door neighbor's little girl (she is now grownup with kids of her own). She used to talk about "Krebba Hawk" and we couldn't figure out what it was.

Eventually, we figured it out.
