Our Family Of Six: Back to School

I can't believe we have a middle schooler already. Although he starts school at 7 am he is excited to be going to a school that has an emphasis in math, science, & ROBOTICS. Yea, he likes robotics. We'll see how it goes.

Out of the Mouth of Babes

This conversation happened at Kneaders: "I am going to save the rest of this dessert for later." "You mean, so you can eat it in 5 minutes?"
"I didn't know poop could be so fun." Comments after a junior ranger activity held at Cedar Breaks National Park. The junior rangers were looking through owl scat to discover what the owl had eaten. Their owl ate a small rodent. :)
Overheard while riding in the car with E driving, "Should I be wearing a helmet?" "I'm too young to die."
We were discussing clean language and words to avoid. Someone spoke up and mentioned that they heard a student at school say the "B" word. We asked them to spell the forbidden word: BULK. We quickly told them that word was okay to use.
After a presentation, one of our children told their sibling, "I love you. Now, go sit down."
