Clearly, my son loves superheroes

Grant has been obsessed with seeds for a few months now. Each vegetable and fruit that I have in the kitchen, he asks, "Does that have seeds?". He gathers the seeds and plants them in the backyard and occasionally waters them. He has even taken the seeds out of his apple at school and shared them with his friends as though they were prized jewels (and to him, they are).

This morning, we cut up a fresh pinapple and he asked the now-familiar question:
"Do pineapples have seeds?"
"Yes, but pineapple plants don't grow well where we live."
"Why?"
"They need a tropical climate"
"Oh! [he smiles over his knowledge] Like Metropolis!"
