Smarter than a Fifth Grader, Older than Buckwheat, Bigger than the Moon

This morning Sisi used the word "rue."  J-dude didn't know what it meant.  She told him, then I told her "you are smarter than a 5th grader!"  Which J-dude didn't like too much.  Then we compared heights AGAIN and Sisi measured taller than J-dude AGAIN.  Which J-dude didn't like too much. 

He still went along on the shopping trip for her birthday gift:  roller blades, AND pads for all joints and bony places.  He also picked out a couple small gifts for her himself the other day when she wasn't around.  So her big day, #10, should be a good one.  Cake tomorrow.  Gifts on Monday, the actual big day!

While we were hanging around this morning I thumbed through the WGLT Guide and saw that the featured act in this years Free Summer Concert sponsored by WGLT will include Buckwheat Zydeco! 

Me:  Wow!  Buckwheat Zydeco! 
Kids:  Who is that?
The Player:  Is he even still alive?
Me:  Let's check on the internet.  It could be a trick!

Me:  Yes, still alive and...younger than you.

I hope I don't come to rue that statement.

On to other news:  The moon tonight will be bigger than the moon.  ?  I don't understand but I guess I'm not smarter than a fifth grader!
