One Hundred Nine: Lessons


Directed toward Hayden:
What is the first thing you are going to teach your baby brother?
Science. Like science experiments. Like how to shrink a feather.

Directed toward Davis:
What is the first thing you are going to teach your baby brother?
That when a dog goes (panting noises), it means he is tired.
Then I am going to teach him about site words. Did you know I have a site word in my name.
IS!
Seriously, who needs kindergarten when lessons like this will be readily available from your big brothers?

Thirty One: Lesson #1012

Lesson #1012: Never, under any circumstances leave your four year old to do a "homework worksheet" at the kitchen table with the to freedom to choose his own marker.

There was a good hour or so (after I realized Davis chose the thickest permanent magic marker in the drawer) that I thought my kitchen table would forever say "I am four" across it six times.

But thanks to some bleach and elbow grease from Jeff, fortunately, that is no longer the case.

***Related: I created these custom worksheets using http://www.handwritingworksheets.com/, a website Mica forwarded to me.
