Car Talk

Today's drive into work ...

Mitchell: Mommy, what's a heart attack?

Mommy: Where did you hear that word?

Mitchell: You said it a long time ago when we were watching "Spider Man."

Mommy: Oh, I did?

Mitchell: Yes, what's a heart attack?

I went on to explain the heart's role, what happens when you have a heart attack and even how the heart carries oxygen through your body.

I won't be surprised if a few weeks pass and he asks, "Mommy, what's your circulatory system?"
