My six year old has advanced from an estimated age of 3 to 5-and-a-half in reading..in just six weeks.

I left his dad/bailed on him when he was 12, after raising him for eight years. Both of his biological parents are also brain farts. He's still alive, and that's a huge deal.

My cat wakes me up early in the AM and digs into my ear to tell me to feed him every day. I don't have kids.
If you could get your cat to live off of earwax, you could sleep in.

You couldn't handle my cat. When he wants to eat, he wants to eat, and he lets you know it.
