IQ test

So far in his life, Miles has demonstrated superior ability in everything he tries - sleeping, eating, growing, crying, and the list goes on. This is relatively uncommon and I'm sure you and I can't claim the same feat. So on April 25th, the day after he switched from newborn to infant, Drew and Emily administered an IQ test. As Miles is not the only high performer in the house, two others were also tested. Included were the bathroom doorknob, for its unfailing ability to isolate the bathroom when needed, and Saba, for her superior Frisbee skills.

Miles (left) and doorknob (right) both failed to lift their pencils or open their test books.
Saba (not pictured) was the only participant to use her pencil or test book. Unfortunately, she used them as chew toys.

The results came back this week with both good and bad news.

First the bad news:
Much to the dismay of Drew and Emily, Miles appears to have the intellect of a newborn.

The good news:
Our Bathroom doorknob may be as smart as Miles!
Workers at the testing facility were able to recover 17% of Saba's test and the eraser from her pencil.

Umm.. I think you need a real school psychologist to come to your house on the weekend of june 13-15 to give a real IQ test to Miles, Saba and doorknob. I'm on my way :)

Happy Birthday Miles. (2 days late)I think you are the smartest one in the house. You get to do whatever you want and they bow to your every need. They bathe you, feed you, change your clothes, hug on you, and answer your every little whim!! Just exactly who needs the IQ test????? Saba - you're not doing too bad either.

Love, Aunt Dory
