WEIRD SCIENCE

Lauren had her first day of Science Camp today. It is held at our local college campus. She was a little nervous and so was I. But, I was thrilled when she came home so excited that she was bouncing off the walls. She threw her arms around me and shouted, "Mom! We dissected a sheep's kidney!" I was only slightly thrilled by this news until she later informed me that she was the only kid in her group who would even touch the kidney, let alone cut it open. She did all the work because the other kids were too grossed out to help.

Is it weird that I am so proud of this?

And, just in case you were wondering (because I know I was), this is what a sheep's kidneys look like:


I know, right? I'm afraid I'm with the other kids on this one.
