miscellaneous monday

miscellaneous monday at the whimsey project. our day to share stuff we don't share the rest of the week. and besides, miscellaneous is a cool word so it warrants being featured. bring on your stuff.

the eight year old that i tutored during the summer returned to school this morning.  a newly minted third grader. our final session was last week.  during the summer she has worked at socializing the newborn kittens that scamper about outside. one has taken to her; she can hold it and play with it.  she would bring it in the house while she had her lesson.  after the lesson she would play with the kitten and house cats for awhile. she talked to me while she tending to kitties. friday she said:

her: did you know that cats have secrets?

me: no.  i didn't know that cats have secrets! what kind of secrets do cats have?

her: nobody knows what kind of secrets cats have! they are secret!

now that school has begun my mornings will seem dull without such profound wisdom filling my ears.
