Mommahittie's Kitchen: April 2007

The only real valuable thing is intuition.- Albert Einstein

Did you know...?

He didn't really speak until he was 3 years old. He felt he couldn't get the words right!

Upon looking at his baby sister Maja for first time, he asked,

"Yes, but where are the wheels?"

He really didn't flunk math...in fact, he taught himself calculus at the age of 12!

He did not graduate from high school.

He did not receive a doctorate from Zurich Polytechnic.

He flunked a Physics course.

And...he had no use for mathematics. At least at first. You see,

he really didn't see the realtionship between math and physics until later! A point he later regretted. In fact, he needed tutoring before he developed the Theory of Relativity!

Oh! The drama...Days of Our Lives!

Bright Happy Voice:
So, Darlin' Daughter had her first "real" date with Dave when we were in Cleveland. They are only "DATING"...which means....um, well, we really aren't sure!

Deep Voice:
Meanwhile, back at the Kitchen, Gladys has now extented her 'friendship' with Niall. They're an "official" couple.

My brain thinking:
(I am not sure Ian knows for sure, I had to act innocent last night at Scouts. Ian hangs around me and tells me things. Hmmm....guess Niall won't be sleeping over anymore.)

My voice:
Truevalueman and I are happy for DD, but this Gladys thing is just a little too much for us. Even my sister-in-law mentioned something about 'the girl' Niall is "with" at play practice...her girlfriend's son is one of the little kids acting in the play. NOT a good thing to her third-hand. We've told her to act more civilized; but I think we are wasting our breath!

(Crap!)
