"What's so special about today? Everyday is Earth Day, isn't it?"
-Liam Noonan
The above quote was uttered when Tonia asked Liam how he would like to celebrate Earth Day. They have been talking about the environment a lot in school lately. A certain six-year-old freaks out now-a-days if sandwiches and snacks are packed in plastic bags. Heaven forbid he gets a juice box. Everything has to be packed in re-usable containers, with cloth napkins, and no plastic utensils please. (I'm thinking, however, that if Coke in a can were to make it into his lunch bag he wouldn't say a word.)
Liam has turned into a bit of a zealot. He pointed out to a couple people in the grocery parking lot that they should be using re-usable cloth bags, not plastic. Mommy had to have a little chat with him about that. Wonder if the kindergartner made an impact on those poor unsuspecting people, or if they thought "children should be seen and not heard."
