"I hope our kids are as smart as me when I was little and not like you, trying to dig to China with a stick and thinking 'an' and 'and' are the same word.
But I do hope they have your eyelashes."
--The Official Wife of The Brink, excerpted from a conversation about her early childhood development and briefly touching on mine. I must, however, point out that in adulthood both my digging and spelling have far surpassed hers so I think that I have plenty to offer our future spawn besides the obvious dazzling handsomeness.

Oh brother.
However, you do have nice eyelashes!
Your mother
This is funny. I think this would fit in nicely with Bill Cosby's new show: "Women Say the Darndest Things"
Knowing both of you I couldn't figure out who was doing the digging and who has the nice eyelashes. But now I see that 'mom' has defined the eyelashes part.
BTW, I must point out that I was digging with a hammer, not a stick, and that I was actually carving out a multi-story base/fort/clubhouse, not trying to get to China. And it was muddy so the hammer was actually working. For the record.
