Last night while setting at the table, Jr stated he knew how to spell dumb. Funny thing about Jr is that he hides his intelligence. You would think by first impression, that things might not be registering. However, Jr is very bright, especially in logical topics like math. He is a time savant. He can figure out how many minutes we have until we arrive and is fascinated with tracking the time. He also is great at solving math problems and has started his multiplication tables. Remember he is in first grade. Now spelling and reading is not is strongest subjects but things have started to click for him. I guess that guy who talked about genetics might have been on to something, since reading and spelling still haven't clicked for me. So last night he was spelling things and said he knew how to spell the word dumb. He totally butchered the word and we tried to explain it to him. Now earlier in the week he told SuperMom that she was "C -Y O U- T". As SuperMom retold the story, Lu and I laughed. Then we started talking about the biceps "guns" that DP had. See he flexed for some reason and it was impressive for an 8 year old. Lu then say, have you seen the "definiteness" of my legs. Now SuperMom and I are really laughing. Apparently, she is impressed by her leg definition. Some times, I am not sure of what we are talking about, but I am still usually amused. Three accidental comedians.
