Sayings of Xavy (32)

No doubt, one of the hardest matters to capture as a child, is the passing of time...

Xavy: How much more till we are home?
Pops: About 15 minutes. We are making great time.
Xavy: So, how long is that? Is it like 20 dump trucks?

So, how does one answer that?

Does his response mean that we will get home by the time I have passed 20 trucks? That might be his thinking. There is a certain logic to that.

Or...

Does his response mean that he is trying to drive Pops crazy? That he is saying it with a Decker smirk that has been passed on down from generation to generation. There is a certain logic to that as well.
