Why do mammals eat their young? I am pretty sure that it is because they have some insight into what the future is going to hold. You know like knowing your young son is going to tell you their is no soap in the shower, but what he really means is he doesn't have his own personal bar of soap and sharing with his siblings isn't an option or The teenage son who tells you his room is clean and when you go up you find the trash overflowing, candy bar wrappers all over the place and piles and piles of junk everywhere, but in his world it is clean, or the small son who has convinced the neighbors you are moving because he heard his mom talking about an address change.

School has started so we now have the ritual of homework, dinner and bedtime. I had a shower yesterday why do I need another one?? (forget their pschye) Because YOU SMELL BAD!! Is your homework done? sort of--okay what does that mean yes it is, no it is not. Seems pretty clear to me. Zach's schedule is a little wierd this year, he has some extra free time at KMS so I told him go to the library and get your homework done. Did you go to the library today and do your homework? No, I forgot. The 8th grade health curriculum is sex education this year. We are going to have to teach it to him (actually he will take it online and we will do it with him). The only sex talk I ever got from my parents was "you get pregnant I will kill you" pretty self explanatory no room for interpretation! of course times are different these days, girls are talking about boyfriends in 3rd grade and boys in my class are this guy that I know. I am constantly correcting Amelia no it is not a guy that I know it is a boy in my class. She is getting better with it. Middle school girls are talking about who has bigger boobs and how is that fair when I am older than she is.

more later....
