Yesterday was such a nice day! I had a ton of work that I should have been doing, but Max wanted me to come to the back yard with him. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to spend some time in the nice warm sun with my cute little guy, so I put my work on hold and we went outside.
Max ran to the swing set and hopped up on one swing and I sat on the other one.
"Mom, " he asked sweetly "aren't you going to push me?"
I started swinging myself and said "I thought that this year you were a big enough boy to be able to push yourself on the swing."
He rolled his eyes, threw his hands in the air and said......
"BUT WHEN I PUSH MYSELF, I DON'T GET ENOUGH VELOCITY!"
Methinks we've been spending a bit too much time with Bill Nye the Science guy.

I can't wait until he's a teenager.
LOL - now where did he learn THAT word?
OMG, Max is amazing! And so true, Max. When I push myself I lack velocity too--in so many ways. Max, you should write a book.
would he be willing to come take a physics exam for me?!
One can never spend too much time with Bill Nye. . . .unless you're his wife, then maybe. Steve Spangler is another huge science hit at our house.
Holy Cow! I'm sure most grown-ups don't know what velocity is!
That is awesome!
Velocity! Love it!
Such a sweet heart!
LOVE it!
Karen, judging from the number of car accidents I think your right that most adults don't know about velocity.

absolutely Precious. Bill teaches so much and yet we are not aware of what is sticking in the little heads.
I don't even think I know what that words means now..... (Okay, that's a lie. haha)
I LOVE Max quotes, that kid kills me!
Does he like mythbusters? 2 of my kids love it. There is just something about blowing up stuff or trying to to disprove a myth that my boys find facinating. :)
