Sometimes Christin gets cases of knowledge vomit, for no apparant reason all her knowledge on a subject comes spewing out. Lately we've been talking a lot about being more healthy and I guess Christin overloaded because at dinner last night she said the following:
"It's important to be healthy, to do healthy things and take care of our bodies. You should drink lots of water, eat healthy foods, exercise, wash your body regularly, and brush your teeth. I'm pretty good at all of that. Well, maybe not brushing my teeth, but that one isn't really that important." Here she paused to breathe and I interjected.
"Brushing your teeth is very important."
"Yeah, but it's not like you are going to get sick if you don't brush your teeth."
"Actually, when you brush your teeth you get the germs and bactaria out of your mouth. Do you know what happens if you don't get them out of your mouth?"
She replied.
"They come out in your poop, eventually, as long as you eat healthy foods and drink lots of water you won't stay sick because the sickness will come out in your poop." I decided while this may not be exactly biologically correct it was close enough.
"Oh, what healthy foods would you eat?"
"Lima beans, and chicken. . . may I be excused?"
So there you have it folks, everything you need to know about being healthy. Well, I'm off to make sure Christin brushes her teeth this morning.

Yesterday I worked with Mrs. Slenkamp who had a horrible, disgusting cold. As soon as I got home I washed my hands and brushed my teeth and tongue. Today my throat hurts. Guess I didn't eat healthy enough...
I don't know who's funnier, you or Christin! You both crack me up! :-)
Love, Aunt Linda
