the professor



Frank says too much these days to capture it all.  Here are some snippets that I don't want to forget.

"Mama, I DO want you to interrupt me while I am playing when you are ready for me to put the cheese in (for mac and cheese).  DON'T forget to interrupt me, i won't mind.  I DO want to put the cheese in....  Do you understand, mama?"


"Mama, you have already had your coffee today, why are you getting more?  I thought you were only supposed to have just one coffee."


"mama, do you think that we could have homemade pancakes for breakfast this morning?  we haven't had a long (pronounced wong) breakfast in a wong time."


"can we turn the vacuum over so that we can see the part that sucks the dirt up?" - this was followed by a very detailed study of how the machinery of the vacuum cleaner works.  the next day it was how the coffee pot works.  too bad i don't really know the answers to these questions.  I am just making it up as I go, trying to keep up with the kid.
