she blinded me with science

Every child at our school does a science fair project. There are no ribbons and no winners, but each child in kindergarten through eighth grade gathers on an early spring evening to stand by their work and present it to friends and family.

I picked up some "crystal" pipe cleaners to make models of the crystals she grew in solution, and by the end of the night they had become a hat. I'm always amazed by how poised she can be speaking to adults.
