Just for Kelli :)

So, my friend Kelli keeps getting on me to start my blog... so just for her I will post some random happenings! While not so intriguing as some of her family's antics, the Smith clan has it's moments too!
K4 was doing the dishes (which meant to him, only the dishes in the sink) yesterday and came up with some pretty cool science experiments. One of his favorites was when washing the glasses, he ran his soapy hands over the rim and left a "bubble", then ran some water through the bubble into the glass without popping the bubble, but making the bubble expand over the top of the rim. He called me into the kitchen to see his amazing feat, the proceeded to explain why the bubble expanded. He said the water displaced the air causing the bubble to expand, then as he poured out the water, the bubble sunk in from the rim of the cup. He also found "randomly" formed bubbles coming up the other side of the sink and had me get a picture for his dad :)
I know he is one smart little guy! Wish his teachers could see this part and not just the kid who loses or just plain doesn't do his homework (lately just math, though!)
