area of expertise

Almost verbatim:

#1: Do real race cars have real head lights?

me: I think so.  But ask your dad. He knows a lot more about race cars than I do. 

#1: Yes, Dad does know a lot more about race cars than you do.

[Thinking this would be a good teaching moment]

me: Can you think of something that I know more about than Dad?

#1:(long pause) Cleaning. And food.

Wow. Not sure that my kids would come up with ANYTHING that I do better than dad. Kuddos to the kiddo for noticing your superior cooking and cleaning skills.

I actually wondered about the headlights thing and I found out that they are just stickers to look like headlights.

Cleaning and food ranks higher that knowledge of NASCAR so I'd take that as a diss to "husband".

Oh, the life of a mom! Definitely not glamerous. . . or even very cool.

I learn all I need to know about race cars from the Disney movie Cars.
