Kate's journal, #1

Dear Diary,

As an inquisitive two-year old, with a healthy respect for God's creation, I feel it is important to begin my education early by conducting a number of simple science experiments around the home, using every-day household materials. For instance, yesterday I poured most of my baby shampoo in the toilet to see what would happen! It was amazing - bubbles everywhere! My daddy came to see what I was doing, and he must have been pretty excited too, because he started jumping up and down, slapping his forehead, and saying my name over and over. It made me feel very proud that I got such a reaction out of that big guy!

Next week: particle physics. Like, what happens when I throw yogurt against the wall at velocities approaching the speed of light?

I'm trying to maintain my good sense of humor now while I still have it! :)

Yahoo, Kate! That is one that hasn't been done in our home yet. But I can just see your daddy slapping his head. You sure he wasn't saying "Tom" over and over again?
