Today we did nothing. Really! Nothing!! We got up at the usual time and went to swimming practice. Levi's really good teacher is back after having her little girl and I was very pleased to see her. She knows Levi well and only pushed him over the edge once. She raised her voice to him once and then after hysterical crying for the rest of the lesson, she hasn't done it again. I can't believe how sensitive he is some times. Anyway, she seems to be able to get the best out of him and the replacement never really pushed him very hard.
Then we did nothing. And Boy did we need it. I thought about going out and finishing the Weed Whacking. I thought about mowing. I even thought about harvesting the peanuts. We did nothing. I think it had to do with the 32 degree (90F) heat coupled with the 89% humidity. You start to sweat just walking outside, let alone actually trying to do something. For about a minute the humidity went to 100% but the rain did nothing to cool anything off. Frankly it got worse.
Tonight when Levi went to bed he said: (Have I said how much I love what Levi thinks about as he goes to sleep). Anyway he said:
"Mum, Who invented numbers?"
I said; " I don't know, honey, probably someone counting sheep". So he didn't get the joke about falling asleep but I didn't really expect him to and I think at the moment at least I just say them to keep me amused.
He said; "That would make sense, because if they had 10 cows at night and only 8 in the morning, they would know they were looking for 2 cows"
So I am not worried about his math skills ..... or his logic
