Yay! School is out for summer, no more homework to check and no more yelling encouraging the kids to do well in school! After a rough year, the kids pulled out the bottom of the ninth, full count, bases loaded come from behind victory that is the stuff of American legends. Jessica made the honor roll, won an award for excellence in Japanese, and had good standardized test scores. Jacob got 4 A’s and scored very high on his tests (high 90s, a frickin genius!), only missing the honor roll because he talks too much in class… And Vanessa ended a completely stellar K-year with great praise from all of her teachers. Best of all, the lovely WillowBrow, who doesn’t at all buy into the come from behind victory, was a very very happy mommy. She did a lot of work with Jessica to make it all happen.
The kids did great, all winning prizes in the household Scholar’s Cup for their excellent school performances. Now I don’t have to feel guilty if I allow them to have some fun! Now we can all get down to some serious gaming!
