Night before last Simon and I were reading his take home reading book...it was about a girl named Jill and a boy named Jebb.
Jebb?
Yes, Simon Jebb.
But that's not even a word.
Well, it's supposed to be a name.
But it's not. Is it a mistake? Is it supposed to say job?
No.
What about jab?
NO!
Well, jib is a real word.
I know, but this is a name and it's Jebb.
That's not really a name.
Yes it is ...it's Jill's hillbilly cousin who just came into town for a visit...they have weird names where he comes from.
And they don't know what bird cages look like either? (Jebb thinks the fan on the bus is a bird cage.)
Apparently not.
And they don't ride on buses? (Jebb thinks the bus has a face.)
No, that's where they make moon shine.
What's moon shine?
Forget, I brought it up...let's just finish this book...
***To any hillbilly's out there who may be reading this post...don't be offended we're probably related...on my husband's side of course.
***To any of my husband's family who may be reading this...well, who am I kidding, none of you are reading this and even if you were, you're stuck with me so there's nothing you can do except to avoid buses and drink some moonshine
