Jack comes in with some new exciting fact he learned on Bindi the Jungle Girl: Elephants poop over 80 pounds a day (seriously, where would I be without this kind of information arriving daily?) He quickly made sure to point out that Ella, his Webkinz elephant does not, in fact, do that. I said, “That’s what I like about Webkinz: they don’t poop.” He looked at me with a touch of “Dad, how can you be so ignorant?” and said, “Stuffed animals, in general, don’t poop.”
