Yesterday, I was trying to explain the definition of the word brand to Goose. He could see the television from where we were talking, and I asked him if he was listening to me or watching the television. His response: “I can do both.”

Each child is “tough” in their own way. Some more obvious than others. (See recent post on Kobra). I have to worry about Goose because I have a feeling this kid is going to be more trouble than I was. I was smart, but this kid thinks faster than I did and probably do now.
