I’m just a kid, and you’re a grown up. You know lots of stuff that I don’t know. I’m just trying to learn.
— Kat

Said during a trip to the hardware store. I was getting a bit tired of a long string of questions while I was trying to locate the items I was there to buy. I let it get to me and asked her to stop asking so many questions which irritated her and prompted the quote above.

I know she’s right; it’s not always easy being patient.

“Hey Mom and Dad, I just figured something out. . . If you have 4 hours and put it into 3 groups, you’d have one hour and twenty minutes in each group!”

You know, I had been feeling a wee bit guilty that Kat never finished her 1st grade math workbook this year. I guess she’s doing all right.
