J (6.5) is having trouble with his lunch at school. He hasn't been eating it. Well, he does fine with the pudding and applesauce, but he says everything else is "absolutely disgusting." Even though I make it to order, with strawberry jam and white bread.
So today, he was telling me about what he thinks is happening to make his lunch so "disgusting." His explanation is that "bacteria have affected the taste."
Tonight, instead of going to sleep like he should, he called down to me that "the Latin name of watermelon is citrullus vulgaris."
That came out of nowhere, sort of! I know his first grade class has had lots of watermelon-themed activities lately, but do you really think the other kids remembered its Latin name? I'm sort of wondering why the teacher even mentioned it!
