Observation Boys Quote by Kate Brian
““ Megan Meade’s Guide to the McGowan Boys Entry Three Observation #1: Boys are very stealthy when they want to be. Evan has all kinds of tricks for sneaking back into the house after hours. (I know you’re dying to know why I know this.) Observation #2: Boys lose their cool when snagged by their parents. Once inside the house, Evan is not so stealthy. Of course, maybe if he hadn’t stopped on the stairs to brush the eyelash off my cheek and have me make a wish, we would never have gotten caught. (Ahhhhhhh!!!!) Observation #3: Boys have one-track minds. Unfortunately, Evan’s train is not on MY track. (I know, major letdown.) But who knows? Maybe his train will be making an unscheduled stop in Meganville. Okay, sorry. No more metaphors this late at night. I promise. ””
