A special question

This is a backpost…Christian asked me about 3 months’ ago (24 Jan):

“Mama, I have a very special question for you.”

I braced myself and replied “Yes…?”

Christian: “What if….the grasscutter doesn’t want to cut grass anymore and the grass grows to outer space then when the grasscutter finally cuts it down and it falls onto Earth, will the Earth explode?”

*Mama laughs heartily*

Oh, the things that preoccupy the mind of a 5 year old. (This was when he was interested in outer space and the various levels from atmosphere to space.)
