Boobs are Best...Go Figure

Breastfed babies are more intelligent than those weaned on formula milk, according to the most comprehensive study conducted on the issue.

This would explain why I'm a moron. And why my kids are smarter than I. Thanks for nothing mom. :)

I should have a new baby, and breastfeed him longer than the 3 elders. They would be the "control sample group" and I will make a comparison between both of them in a couple of years : ) Who will be the smarter?

I study myself (!!!) . . . and am arrived to this conclusion : the breastfed baby family save money. Interesting , no?

I worried that maybe I nursed too long and it had a reverse effect!!! Just kidding! They are all smart...(in there own way)...LOL! However, I'm thinking it's a good thing my mom didn't nurse me or I would be moving stuff with my mind.

Clearly not nursing me didn't have an effect on my ego.

The whole family is off doing different stuff and I have been left alone. Mwahahaha (evil laugh). While they are away...Mommy will play!!!

oops! there I go touting my intelligence and I wrote "in there own way" instead of what it was supposed to be "in THEIR own way".

God loves messing with me.
