a trip with grandpa

Last Friday grandpa drove to pick up grandchildren(boy-age 9 and girl-age 6) for a week-end in the country.This is a 2 hour drive. At some point on the way to grandmas house girl phones. Girl says that they are lost. Grandma- do you know what time you left
             Girl- no, but we stopped for ice cream ( now grandma knows where they are, about halfway from home) and grandpas brain froze and now he forgot how to get to your house.
            Grandma- can not really say anything because girl keeps talking.
            Girl- grandpa says we are going away from the sun and we might go to the forest, if we are still lost we can have roast dog for supper. Grandpa said we can not roast the dog because we do not have any matches. Grandpas brain is still frozen grandma.At this point boys starts to pester girl. Grandpa says to boy to be nice to his sister. Boy turns to girl and says I guess grandpa doesn't know about SIBLINGS, which leaves Grandpa asking himself  What are siblings and how does boy know this word?
