Overheard From the Back of the Van


Mikah:     Mom, guess what we learned today at the museum? I know the name of the first Prime Minister of 
               Canada. It's Steven Franklin.
Me:         Well… the first Prime Minister was actually John A. Macdonald. 
Mikah:    Oh, that's right! I knew it was something like Macdonald. Oh, and that guy was named after a famous 
                restaurant! 
Lukas:     It was KFC! Bwahahaha!!!!
Mikah (completely ignoring his brother who was laughing so hard at his own joke I thought he might pee himself )   
               And he liked to keep (whispers here) illegal alcohol in his desk drawer!



Ah yes, sounds like it was a successful field trip full of knowledge building.

While the Boys Were Playing...

Tonight while I was cooking supper I heard this from the boys who were playing lego…

Lukas:   Mikah, check this out! This man lego looks just like Stephen Harper and this girl lego looks just like 
             Michael Jackson! I can't believe we've never noticed that before!
