Weird Science

The boys tend to bring up these little fun facts at dinner.  Usually it is something they came across in school.  One day it will be something like, "Hey! I held a deer's heart today."  Fortunately, Coco's science teacher had forewarned us during Open House.  Her brother is a hunter and supplies her with various organs to use in her classes.
     Other times it is some kind of trivia or factoid.  We talked about the Big Bang theory for a while tonight.  And no, not the TV show.  Although we have talked about that too.  I like that the kids are interested in learning.  I also enjoy the fact that they are the ones initiating the conversations.  They start these conversations with such enthusiasm.  It is really contagious.  The whole family gets involved and each member has something to say.  Everyone contributes.  Isn't that what dinner time is all about?
