Still Learning

Quinn brought home a spelling test on which he achieved a 71%. There was a note from the teacher asking him why he did so poorly since it was an "open book" test. I asked Quinn the same question. He told me, "Well, I just wanted to learn from my mistakes."

I said, "Time to start learning!" and made him write each misspelled word correctly three times. Quinn was not happy. But I think he was learning.

Do you get the feeling that Mike said the same, exact things to his mom when he was a kid?

It must have been Mike, because it certainly wasn't me!!! However, I have suspicions about my father . . .
