Deductive reasoning

This morning at breakfast Sam asked, "Dod made Pancakes?"
We tried the detailed answer that God made the things with which me make pancakes. But them he just repeated what he had said earlier, and we realized that it was not a question...he was making a statement: "GOD MADE PANCAKES."
"Yes, Sam, God made pancakes." He was happy with that reply.

After breakfast I asked Sam who made real clown fish. He didn't feel confident enough to answer. So I asked who made everything.
"Dod (God)." said Sam.
Then I asked again, "So who made real clown fish?"
"Dod." was the confident reply.

Alright! My little two year old is deducing right up their with Sherlock Holmes.
