For your reading enjoyment,
observations from the Cook kids on matters of science.
Rain
Thunder is no longer a mystery to the kids, as Grammy has informed them that it is simply the angels bowling. From this they have drawn other scientific conclusions. Marcus began to giggle when the rain came one day, because as he explained, "The Angels are spitting on us!"
The Common Cold
Achoo! (I sneezed.)
Ear Wax
Nausea
Hair growth
Tears

After
a few pukey hours one morning I told Aggie I was feeling better.
"Of
course you are mommy, I prayed for you."
"Aw, Aggie, thank you!"
Aggie, with a serious face, replied, "Your welcome. Now, Let's not have that
happen again."
