Teachable Moment

I made pancakes this morning for breakfast. Jonah ate at least 7. Mom laughed and said that we should have weighed him when he got here and again when he leaves because she's sure he's having a growth spurt.

So that gave the boys the idea to get out the bathroom scale. Sam weighs 59, Peter, 57, and Jonah, 31.

So later, Sam came out of the bathroom-- "I weighed 59 before I went to the bathroom, and 58 when I got done!" he announced.

We all cracked up.

"Soooo..." Mom said, "How much did your poop weigh?"

With homeschool, there's a lesson to be taught in everything.
