Last Day of Kindergarten

Owen has been a little sad and quiet today as he said goodbye to the
aptly named Mrs. Devine. Now he's off to a pool party and a full
summer of activities.

I know everything.

Wow Daddy, you're really smart - you know everything.

Well, I know a lot, but I certainly don't know everything.

How did you learn so much?

I guess I read a lot and I paid close attention in school.

Well, I do know everything.

Whit - Wow, at the tender age of six you already know everything?

Yes, not actually everything but almost everything. I know almost everything.

Tadpoles

We were visiting friends in VT a few weeks ago and Owen got to explore the frog pond and hold some tadpoles. He also got to make smores that night - note all of his friends lined up around the campfire too.

Star Rocket

It's amazing how a little experiment can spark critical thinking and imagination. We built this rocket from a kit and loaded it up with baking soda and vinegar (for fuel). Lots and lots of questions followed, mostly unrelated to rockets.

Gardening

We had a birthday dinner with Uncle Jeff on Saturday and showed Owen
all of his beautiful strawberry and vegetable plants. Owen barely
stepped on any of them.

Daddy, one question...

Why can girls have babies but boys can't?

I don't know Owen, that's the way God made us.

I wish I was a girl so I could have a baby.

Oh, that's good stuff. This goes straight on the blog.
