Acute Observations

Miles has been making some good connections lately. If you listen closely to what he says, you can learn a lot. He and I took a little walk the other day and I learned all sorts of exciting things. Such as...

Birds don't chirp. They scream.
Food turns into poop.
Fingers have bones. 
T-Rex will eat you.
Monsters live in the ground. 
The monsters were sleeping when we walked by.
We have a jungle beside our house.
Dogs are crazy.

He told me so much more that I forgot half of it. I should have kept better notes. We only retain 7% of the information given anyway, so I'm guessing this is 7% of what he told me. He seemed to drone on and on about dinosaurs. (Something about Montana having lots of dinosaurs; I don't know. I haven't seen any.). Mama? Are you listening? I heard him say. At that point I was too busy blowing bubbles with my bubblegum. 

I hope he doesn't test on this info. If he does, I hope he reviews it. Maybe I can cheat off of Caitlynn. She seems to have all the answers these days.

Wish me luck!

That's so cool. Miles loves you, he has taken you into his confidence and told you all his fears and secrets...

And you weren't even listening! I bet you were thinking about duct tape.

When you get him alone, he talks non-stop. I think he has the secret to the meaning of life.

Oh I listened for the most part but he goes on and on and on... :)

And you have to listen or they get cross with you. I know!

Yeah- Miles gets irritated when I'm not paying attention to him. He gets in my face and will make sure I'm listening to him.
