Excitement!
Two fun things are happening in the Animal Planet household. First off, I just got off the phone with Marie, who called me directly after enrolling in college and signing up for fall semester classes. She will be the first in the family (blood family that is, as I had better have my effing degree before 2009) to graduate from college. She's going to community college for her Associates, then transferring to ASU to become an RN. Imagine that!!! We're terribly proud of her - after a rocky couple of years, she seems to be firmly on-track for her future.
The second thing is, my grandson Devlin is a genius. He, at the ripe old age of 16 months, called his Grandma last night to chat. I had just finished a conversation with Lilly about an hour before, when the phone rang again. I picked up with a, "Hey, what's up?" Because caller ID lets you do that. All I heard on the other end was some breathing and mumbling. So I'm all, "Hello? Is there a grown-up on the other end?" More mumbling and breathing, then I heard Michael in the background say, "What'cha doing, Devlin? Hey, buddy, who you talkin' to?"
He then took the phone from Devlin and said, "Hello?"
I responded with a, "Hey, what's going on?"
He said, "Who is... oh, hi!"
"Your son just called me."
"He did?"
"Yep, he must have hit redial or something."
"Huh! Weird!"
"No, not weird. He wanted to talk to his Grandma! Your son is a genius! He gets that from me."
"Uhhh... riiight."
