Yesterday afternoon the kids got home from school and were enjoying an snack before heading off to Nojah's soccer game. While eating the snack Nojah come flying in the house and says "Mom, Mom, MOM!!!" "Come Quick!" I said "why?" He said with great enthusiasm "There are two grasshoppers and they are going to mate." "Ooohh?" I said. After he realized I didn't jump up he and Lex went out to watch the event unfold right before their eyes. As they were sitting there I stood behind to listen to their conversation that went something like this................
Nojah "watch lex the boy grasshopper is going to mate the girl grasshopper"
Lex "Then what?" "They fall in love?"
Nojah "If she likes him then they fall in love and get married".
Nojah starts singing........ "two little love birds sitting in the tree, k.i.s.s.i.n.g............." and we all know how that one ends.
The conversation stopped when I went outside to sneak a photo of the copulating grasshoppers. Either the audience scared her off or she didn't care for him because this is the photo of the male (or at least we assumed he was the male) sitting all by his lonesome.. Better luck next time buddy.

That is HILARIOUS! I hope the grasshopper-guy isn't feeling too rejected right now.
LOL --- I feel like running away from my mate sometimes too...Hee Hee Hee!
Rejected! Sounds like your kids have it all figured out. That is funny!
