Today while headed to lunch Tarzan sneezed 4 times. I said, "was that four sneezes I think that means you get a letter".
Both he and Jess looked at me oddly.
What you've never heard the old wives tale about sneezing?
And again they looked at me oddly.
According to google:
Sneeze once for sorrow; Sneeze twice for joy; Sneeze three times for a letter; Sneeze four times for a boy; Sneeze five times for silver; Sneeze six times for gold; Sneeze seven times for a secret that never will be told.
So I was wrong four times is for a boy.
And one more reason I love my Grandma O'Haver who recited her poem every time someone had multiple sneezes.
ADDENDUM
See moms comments. She got it right ;)

no letter for Tarzan:(
I love that too. But her's was different - 1 is a kiss, 2 is a wish, 3 is a letter and 4 is something better. Amazing what we can still remember even when we get older.
hmmm. I always sneezed in 3s.
