When did 8 year olds get so clever? As I was standing making dinner tonight my 8 year old asks me… who do you like best, Mum? Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, or Stephen Hawkings. Time stands still as I realise that possibly my son knows more than I do and I have some serious bluffing to do. …Ummmmm…. I’m going Albert Einstein. Yea. Clever dude. And my 8 year old replies. “What about Stephen Hawking though?” ….
Me.. “Stephen Hawking, Stephen Hawking… wasn’t he the guy that…” C’mon fill in the blanks here.I’m thinking.
Long story short. Today I realised that my 8 year old has surpassed me. He officially has a branch of knowledge I don’t, and it only grows from here. And who is Stephen Hawking? Thank goodness for google.
What’s up at the Howard house this week? Lots of little assignments – the kind that keep my spirits high. I tried not scrapping for 2 days last week and it made me prickly. Oooooo Paul says as he walks in the door.. you got prickles. lol
So this week – writing instructions and powerpoint shows for Freestyle. I think at this point I should remind you that there is still chance to join me in my classes. But I won’t, cos I have said that before ;o)
Stampin’Up! I forgot to say – those white gel pens that everyone looks for are sold by Stampin’ Up! It’s where a lot of the US girls get theirs. And the company is just starting and it’s ground level and all that if anyone wants to join and become a demonstrator. Website if anyone is interested.
And I was privy to a huge box of inks and stamps and other amazing stuff “Just to try” arriving on my doorstep. Lucky girl. That day when Paul walks in the door he sees me and the bog box of stuff from Stampin’ Up! and he says “ooo sucks to be you today”. Sarcasm. At it’s highest.
