Gills!

Does fish gill have one L or two?...anyways...my spellcheck for blogger is acting weird...so I'll just chance it here.....

This is Megan....I've spoken of her before,...she's my youngest.....the body of a 14 yr old in the mind of a 3 year old...ya...frustration...anyways.....

this morning I was feeding Megan's goldfish...she tends to overfeed and the fish have died in the past...then we have weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth.....so, it's my job...when I think of it.....she was pointing out to me that there was something wrong with her fish....'what's wrong?'....'it has lines on it's side'...'where'...'right there'......'Megan.....that's its' gills'....they're suppose to be there!" As I was leaving her room, this outraged voice follows me...'where are my gills...aren't I suppose to have gills?'....'NO'....'why not?'.......'because you're not a fish, Megan...you are human....humans don't have gills'!

I will admit,...I could not contain myself....I started laughing....from another bedroom I heard Maya laughing......sorry.....sometimes you just have to laugh...or go crazy......or give up.....
