Lemuel quote
I'm sitting on the couch, doing my daily Killer Sudoku. Lemuel is wiping the table. He looks over at me thoughtfully, as though debating whether or not to tell me something.
"Ma," he says, finally. "I think...I'm starting to like..." (pauses not added for dramatic emphasis. He really was hesitant about telling me.)
(Ooh, I think. I know he's been having issues with his girlfriend. Is there another woman waiting in the wings?)
"...the Gettysburg Address," he finishes.
Um, yeah. My kids are a bit nerdy.
