How do you pick up a duck?

No pictures to speak of this time. But another golden moment for Matthew. This morning, we were watching Noggin, and they had some ducks on swimming in a pond. I'll just relate the dialogue:

Matthew: Daddy, how do you pick up a duck?

Dad: Well, I never really thought about it, but I think you would grab it under the chest and feet with one hand, and put the other on top of its back (showing him more than telling)

M: Maybe. I think we need to go to the duck farm.

D: The duck farm?

M: Then we can watch REAL CLOSELY, and then we'll KNOW how to pick up a duck.

D: Well, Matthew, I think that would be perfect. Who would know better than a Duck Farm.

He's just too much. I'm sure it's always gonna be one of those "You had to be there with your own kid" kind of thing, but I just can't help it...
