The difference between paper and plastic...

Today the boys had some Kool Aid (#1 had to beg me for a week to make it since I am not generally a Kool Aid kinda gal) in a paper cup...after which they rinsed the cups out and we used them for their chocolate pudding for dessert (I am such a good Mom.

Me: Where do they go then?
#5: On the floor. Plastic Cups go in the sink.
Gee, I never knew.

Near the start of the school year I was walking home from the school with #3 and #4 and I chanced upon a snail crossing the sidewalk. I stopped the boys and had them come and look at it. My intention was to look at it, and then let it go on its slow but merry way. Then I saw a second snail just off of the sidewalk, and I couldn't resist. #1 was pretty sad when Claireford died ( Claireford is named after Cliff and Claire Hu
