I was woke up this morning to a little voice..."Momma, is fire hotter then hot sauce?"


I mean, was he dreaming of this? "How about lightning? Is fire hotter then lightning?" How does he come up with this stuff? I do not remember asking such questions when I was little, but my mom said I did. "Can we put fire out with the sink? How will we get the fire to the sink?" "Maybe we will have to bring the hose into the house." "Why don't we have a hose in the house?"


Is my brain really supposed to be able to work so early in the morning? I do not think my brain works like that in the height of my day. Actually, I do not think that it has ever worked in that way. Is that the diffrence in the way boys and girls think? It is like the whole direction thing. North, South, East, West. You may as well be speaking Spanish to me when telling me directions. Even in my own town, or right down the street. That inner compas thing. If it is not written down word for word in front of me, I am not getting there, in any timely manor that is.

When I was younger, and first able to drive, to I was lost all the time. It was actually pretty fun at times. My girl friend Brandy and I used to drive all over the world, lost, trying to get to where we intended to go to begin with. That was so fun. Hours we would spend in other towns, no where, any where...it was fun to just go and drive. Do boy get lost like that? I guess they do, but they just do not ask for directions. Even when they are little, my sone refuses to ask for help. He will whine about it, but not ask for help. Why is that?? Is he mimiking his father? Or me? I cannot see my behavior from that point of view. I guess that is something I will have to track from now on. I wish I could write longer today, but I have had to fight the whineing kids to get this much done-
