jade

he's ten. he is basically my little brother (because i've always wanted a token little brother-- and emma refuses to play that game with me anymore).
this intellect is downstairs at the moment allowing a few ladybugs- that have been living near the widows for how long?- to partake in trial and error experimentations and an in-depth studying of sorts.
the first test enabled the ladybug participants to climb over and about 50 neatly lined up plastic army figures. jade watched for their climbing abilities as he states "next time i can see if they climb better, i'll be able to tell if their claws and legs can get over better..."
for the second test, jade showed me a small black box. (i am still trying to rack my mind as to where the box originally came from.) in the box were peices of small ripped-up paper. "with this study i am going to see how well they work together. i am going to test their team work in the box."
he discribed his last study in a funny accent (i almost allowed a giggle to escape-- close but i didn't), then asked "hey, do i sound like a zoologist?"
i smiled a big goofy grin when he left the room, after answering his question in a serious tone.
