We started with the nervous system, since mommy could basically do them blind folded at this introductory level. Then we went on to the systems that she learned about in conjunction to her neuro studies, such as the endocrine system. When we got to the parts of the body where she had completely forgotten about because they weren’t relevant to her, like the skeletal system, she would help me look through my textbook. While homework wasn’t something I enjoyed ever, it was suddenly a whole lot better with her helping me; both because it was less stressful and because it was fun being with her. When we finished the last question we stared at each other for a few moments. I couldn’t read her eyes at all, and I wondered if she could read mine.
