Molly had her five year check up on Wednesday. During the course of the appointment, our doctor asked Molly what she was learning. She, of course, looked at me like a deer in headlights.

On a recent trip to Walmart with my parents, Noah went through the line with them, and Eric and the other kids and I all went through another line.
