D'Artanyan asked me the big question today...
Well there you go.
He was in the refrigerator and I caught him opening and closing it very,very slowly, I knew instantly what he was doing but said nothing.
Then Dar asked me "Dad does the light stay on or shut off when you close the door?"
Then Dar asked me "Dad does the light stay on or shut off when you close the door?"
IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION THEN READ NO FURTHER!!!
I said to him "well buddy I don't know...but I know one way we can find out." So I took out the old trusty digital camera, turned off the flash, set it for a time delay of 12 seconds, turned it on and closed the door. About 15 seconds later Dar said "dad, I think it's done." So we took the camera out and I flipped to the pic of the inside of the fridge. He said to me "well, I guess the light does go off." Below is the photo that I showed him of the inside.
Then I opened the fridge and showed Dar a button to push, when he pushed it the light went off and I also showed him how when you shut the door on the fridge it depresses that button and that makes the light turn off.
Oh...maybe I should have just left it a mystery?

Mom is wrong... "Where do babies come from" is the next in line. ;) Don't get creative with the answers or you'll scar him for life.
