Trying to be good

The animal shelter called today asking if we could foster four pit bull puppies. I regretfully told them this wouldn't be a good time for us to take that on. I was really sad to have to say that--and of course I shouldn't have been. I'm more than overwhelmed right now with taking care of my family, being pregnant, and being in school--I really don't need four puppies that need to be bottle fed, cleaned up after, etc. But puppies are so incredibly cute...

On another note, here's a random quote from our day that I found amusing--especially taken out of context: "The large intestine broke off. Luke was yo-yo-ing with it."

How do you yo-yo a large intestine?

I was wondering the same thing. :)

OK, I'll give the background. The kids were examining parts to a human body model, and were explaining to me why the small intestine was no longer connected to the large intestine. The intestines were made of a rubbery material, and Luke had been holding on to one end of the large intestine and bouncing it up and down (yo-yo-ing to Lily)--which caused it to break off from the small intestine. I thought the quote was funnier without the background though :-)
