Me: "So, who remembers what that time period in America was called?"
Third Grader: *scrunches up face* "Ummm...ummmmm...oh! The Great Discretion!"

Small things, like realizing what the song "Sunny Came Home" is really about or that my old kindergarten teacher is still teaching at the same school with the same teacher's aide or or that there's a peck here with an acorn pointed at me or that I left one of my bowls at school after carrying in the noodle "brains" I made for last week's Halloween party with it.

Or just how many consecutive Election Day posts I have on my flist, even from those of you I've barely heard a political peep from in the past. It's really a little surprising, even though I feel like it shouldn't be. It's nice.
