Funny genes

Gwen: Genes are funny things.

Me: How so?

Gwen: Dad is nearsighted, and you are normal and now I am in between....

Lists and gene pool

The first thing that Gwenchik did this morning once she got up was make a list. She carefully filled in a page with different tasks, like get dresses, right a letter to Santa, practice karate moves... than she ran to me to ask if there anything else to add to the list.

Gwen: And then as soon as I am done with the task, I can cross it off!
....

Now I am famous for making lists, but I do not think that my daughter actually ever saw me making one, so we thought there is an indisputable gene influence :)
