Ben is finally going to earn his keep!
Mood:  sharp
Ben's been living off of us scott free for the past 10 1/2 months. It's time he does something to contribute to the family. So a couple days ago, he registered to be a test subject for the Harvard Lab of Developmental Studies. Pretty much, they'll say "hey, you want to come play for an hour on this day?" If we say yes, they give us $5 and a complimentary toy for the child. Unfortunately, all of the developmental studies they are doing at this time are not for his age range. They will contact us when a study becomes available in his range. I have no doubts that when they do study Benjamin, they will say "Wow, what a fine specimen you have. He is quite possibly the world's smartest kid." I should work at Harvard since I have all the answers.
