So today during our home school day the twins both said things that cracked me up... maybe it's just me because I tend to look at them and see three year olds with pigtails and it melts me.
First up today was Olivia. She was presenting us with a powerpoint that she put together on the San Francisco Earthquake of 1906... I think that was the year ;) I should have listened better!
It had great information, fantastic pictures, and I could tell she really knew her subject.
She had music going with the slides and at the end I questioned her on her music choice. You see, her music sounded like something you would hear in a sad part of Memoirs of a Geisha, or the Last Samurai... needless to say it had a strong oriental sound to it. Makayla wanted to know what had caused her to chose the music... her answer? "Well... since most of San Fransico is chinese, it seemed like it worked..." Totally straight faced, serious answer here. I almost spit my diet pepsi through my nose as I replied... "Not in 1906!"
Then this afternoon as Makayla was reading us part of her decade summary for 1900-1910 she used the term, "Up, up and away" when she was writing about the Wright brothers. Olivia kind of chuckled at her and Makayla stopped and said, "Duh... they invented the airplane, I'm sure they said Up, up and away!" Again... totally serious here...
Sometimes those girls are still so stinking cute... even at 15 ;)
