More Fun with Homework

Math Homework tonight: Mom: "Very good Ryleigh, 8+9=17 is correct. Now, show your work so the teacher will know how you figured out the answer." Ryleigh: "But I figured out the answer in my head." Mom: "Well, just show how you did that." Ryleigh: "What, you want me to draw of picture of me figuring it out in my head?" Mom: "..........whatever you think you can explain to your teacher."

Some Topics Just Happen

While helping Ryleigh with her homework tonight Jeramy came barging into the kitchen to bring up the topic of homosexuality. Well, that's not exactly what he planned, but it sort of happened anyways...

Jeramy: "I just saw on tv that they're going to show a documentary tonight about two women, a couple, that each had twins through in vitro".

Ryleigh: "They're gonna, wait, what...two women?"

Jenn: "Way to go dad."

Jeramy: "How did she pick up on that?"

Ryleigh: "They're married?"

Jenn: "Yes. Thanks Jeramy."

Jeramy: "Why didn't she ask what is in vitro? That sounds much more confusing."
