If it really were common sense, wouldn't everyone use it?
We will now be referring to "it" as uncommon sense!

Friday...

Usually Friday is a fun day. The end of the school week. All of the homework is done and put away. We plan our Saturday activities. We may even have visitors from out of town! This is not what we had planned for Friday afternoon!


I got a call from the nurses office at school (nothing new so that wasn't the point of concern). She said Wesley had hit his head (again not alarmed). Then she said I may need to take him to the ER. Well I guess the only thing to interject here is "I guess we are due for an Emergency Room visit, as we have mad it four months this year without a trip to TMC!" Wesley was running backwards on the playground and fell and hit his head on a "red pole"

He only ended up with three staples with a bonus opportunity to shoot the staple gun before they threw it away! Hey how often to you get to do that? He is fine and back at school with his attached show and tell story. I'll let you know how the removal goes. (I think we are going to do it ourselves since we own the tool!)

The Wisdom of Youth!

A smile for the day. (And a bit of truth in the> bargain!)
HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY? (written by kids)
You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming. -- Alan, age 10
No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with. -- Kristen, age 10
WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?
Twenty-three is the best age because you have known the person FOREVER by then.
-- Camille, age 10
HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?
You might have to guess, based on whether they seem> to be yelling at the same kids.

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?
Both don't want any more kids. -- Lori, age 8
WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?
Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to> say if you listen long enough. -- Lynnette, age 8> (isn't she a treasure)
On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a> second date. -- Martin, age 10
WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR?

"Forget about your worries and your stripes?"


So we were on our way home from Lowes last night and the kids were talking and singing in the back seats when Ashley's song just stood out...She is kinda loud! She was singing 'Bear Necessities' from The Jungle Book. After like three rounds of the chorus she stopped and asked me, "Mom, why do bears have stripes?"
