Kids these days...

I just was sorting through the usual fall-out of random crumpled papers from Son #5's bursting schoolbag: papers from teachers, old homework, charts, etc., and then, among all that garbage, I found a couple standardized countrywide tests that he apparently took at the end of November. 99% in math. (He missed the ² in marking cm squared in the last answer.) 93% in Japanese, and 97% in Social Studies?! When I was a kid, I would have run to show my parents those grades.

Meanwhile, Son #4 has chosen this Sunday to tackle his reams of winter vacation homework.

"Why didn't you do it during winter vacation?"

"Because it was a 'vacation.'"
