UM, TIME TO FINISH THAT COLLEGE DEGREE

An excerpt from our conversation on the way to Amarillo yesterday:

Betty: Mommy, what is hibernation?

Me: It's when animals sleep all winter.

Betty: To keep warm through the winter?

Me: Yes.

Betty: What do they get under? What do bears get under?

Me: Bears sleep in caves to stay warm.

Betty: Do they light a fire to stay warm?

Me: No, bears don't know how to light fires.

Betty: What do they do to keep warm through the winter?

Me: They snuggle up with each other.

Betty: And their soft coats?

Me: Yes.
