Me Write Pretty One Day

So we finished a week of school today. How is it going? Everyone is still alive. 

Evan comes back happy and worn out every evening and swears with a big smile that he hasn't learned a thing, which means that probably possibly he has. And Vivian is still a joy to teach. She surprises me with what she can do - yesterday she derived the value of pi to "something less then 4" and the day before she went through the geometric proof of Pythagoras' Theorem.   


Though we did learn today that the school decided to push back cursive to next year -which is what they did last year - which makes it two years of delay in two years. Evan - when you are full grown and wonder why you never learned to write, you can point back to this moment and wonder what your parents were thinking...
