Oldest son could never get his plants (that he thought I didn’t know about) to grow. I kept helping him by watering them every morning. Maybe it was the salt I put in the water that was a problem.
I had just turned 5 yo when Pearl Harbor was bombed and I still remember that we were coming home from church when we heard about it on the car radio. Our grandson was spending the day with us on 9/11 and he was almost 6 yo, so when I saw the second plane hit the tower I called him in to watch what was going on because I knew that someday he would remember where he was on that day.
I found out later in life that at least one very good Biology teacher didn’t want or need a man.
