“I’m excited that Lena’s coming over today. She looks exactly like me, only girl style.” Mac says this morning about his friend coming over after school. “You like her,” Sailor figured out last night, “Because she is a freckle face like you.” Mac agreed completely. At dinner we were discussing this girl’s upcoming visit. And the worms Mac’s class is using for a science discovery. “I named mine after my brother,” Mac tells us. “Slimy?” I ask. “No, Sailor. Michael named his Bob.” He goes on to tell me that he is afraid to touch his black night crawler. “Is Michael?” I ask. “Yes,” he says. “Are the girls afraid to touch their worms?” His answer is a solid, “No.” Go, girls!
