Did he think it was funny too? I don't know. I'll never know, because he instead chose to respond with...
(wait for it)
...but that's not a llama, that's an alpaca.
I don't... I can't... um, whaaa? Did that sentence really just fall out of your mouth? Well excuuuuuse me.
Hey, Mom? Dad? I hereby offer a sincere apology for all of those moments in my childhood when I ruined a perfectly good moment by being a know-it-all. I repent in sackcloth and ashes.
(And after a very thorough google image search, I still don't know what the eff this "llama" is. Maybe a llama. Maybe an alpaca. Maybe a camel. Someone enlighten me. Someone who is not four, please.)

Been there, Erin. With four-year-olds being know-it-alls, I mean. When we misidentified an ape as a monkey, Eldest Son corrected us by saying, "That's not a monkey! Monkeys have tails." Yeah, okay, we knew that. Ahem.
Here's a link to the Maryland Alpaca Breeders Association page on the difference between an alpaca and a llama. Honestly, I can't tell which your Twitter pic shows.
