Over the weekend Wren asked me some questions about the make-up of the universe.
Wren: Mum, how big are orcs?
Me: I don't know. I would guess they are about 8 feet tall. They are a fantasy creature so its hard to know.
Wren: No Mum. Not ORCS, ORCS! They are not a fantasy creature. They are the smallest thing in the universe.
Me: No, orcs are a fantasy creature.
Wren: No AWKS! What is smaller than an atom?
Me: An atom is made of a proton and an neutron.
Wren: But what is smaller?
Me: Electrons?
Wren: But what is SMALLER!
Me: OH! You mean quarks?
Wren: orcs
Me: QUARKS!
Wren: quorcs, orcs, quarks.... ask Dad. Dad told me orcs are the smallest thing in the universe.
