The Little House On The Prairie Effect....

Izzy has been reading Little House on the Prairie at school in her RTI class, and she has really enjoyed it.  The did a drawing with the covered wagon from a milk carton.  It's all I can do to keep Gerren from eating the pretzels.  He doesn't mind that they have glue on them...


The other day, Izzy and I ran to Averitt to pick up something that I left at work.  On the way home she spotted two Averitt trucks.  She asked if they ever let me drive them.  I explained to her that I had not because you had to have a special license.  She then had many more questions about CDL and training to drive trucks.  I told her they had schools to teach people.  She wanted to know who taught the first people to drive.  She said...oh, I know...God must have put a You Tube video out.  I reminded her that You Tube hasn't always been around...and that when I was her age we didn't have computers.  She said....and I bet you got your water from a "hold in the ground."  Love her!!! 

She has had such an inquiring mind recently.  We have talked about everything.  Why some cars use regular gasoline...other diesel.  When I say talked about it...I mean on a 7 year old level.  :)

Gerren has also started calling me Maw-Maw.  His Daddy does encourage him, but he started it on his own.
