Mike scales the intermediate side of the climbing wall, making it all theway to the top. I only made it half way up the beginner’s wall. But I shall return….
Jim Tags: Android, Michael, Mobile Uploads, Sports The other day, it came time to do Mike’s homework.
“I want Laura to help me.”
“Why,” asked Jim.
“Because she’s smarter than you,” he replied.
A very perceptive little guy, I must say! The homework subject was spelling and Mike was required to find a synonym or antonym for 8 of his 10 spelling words. In order to accomplish this task, I taught Mike how to use a thesaurus. He balked at first, like he always does, but eventually came to like the thesaurus, my thesaurus, given to me by my 8th grade librarian (yes I was/am a nerd), before my family moved from Maine back to Southern Virginia, and as such, it has a degree of sentimental value…and thanks Mrs. Newcomb it did come in handy.
I received a phone call from my father-in-law this morning. He said a retraction from my post regarding Michael was needed. He let me know that they had not fed Michael candy, rather he had eaten an apple and had some chocolate milk at their house. My dad then said that Michael had been given two small (snack size I would guess) candy bars before he left this house, which he apparently ate on the car ride home. So you see…they didn’t feed him candy, they only gave him candy!
