Dinner conversation...

#4: Do flies sting you?
Me: No.
#1: Horseflies bite sometimes.
#3: What happens if they bite you?
Me: You turn into a fly.
#3: MOM!
#1: She is just kidding.
#4: Do you know what eats bugs?
Me: Spiders?
#4: Yeah, thats why I don't want to be a bug.
Me: You could be a spider. But sometimes girl spiders eat boy spiders, so if you want to be safe you had better be a girl spider.
All: EEEeeeeeeewwwwwwwwww!

Thinking it may have been a baby snail with an undeveloped shell, I kept it for several weeks, but eventually I gave up on it being a snail and set it free. I know that snails and slugs are pretty much the same thing, but I just can't stomach the thought of feeding slugs for some reason. Snails, I can handle. 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
