So, last night I'm quizzing the boy, even though he doesn't have autism and doesn't need any quizzing, I still do it out of habit. It can't hurt him, right?
Me: And HOW old are you going to be tomorrow?
Child 2: FIVE! And, Mama, do you know what 5 plus 5 is?
Me: What?
Child 2: It's TEN! And do you know what 10 plus 5 is?
Me now feeling like an idiot for having quizzed him on his age: What?
Child 2: 15
Okay, I guess he's ready for Kindergarten (which starts in 41 days, by the way. We counted)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONKEY MAN!!!

Happy Birthday, child 2! I've never met you (or your mom, for that matter), but I'm sure you rock HARD!
