Of course, we knew how it worked, but the little ones thought it was magic. After the science behind the homemade lava lamps was explained, their eyes lit up with excitement and looked eager to learn more.

    It certainly is a wonder Valentine can just drop a couple folders on my desk and walk right away trusting I’d make sense of it and get all of the numbers ‘crunched’ as he calls it. So many new things each day and so many strange words to associate. I guess no matter where you go there will always be local words to learn and know. Never knew I talked so funny till I waltzed in here. And there’s another strange one; waltz. The city folk sure have a fancy way of speaking. Sometimes I miss the simple
