As I mentioned previously, Caleb's actual first day is....well. Huh? I guess, technically it is NEXT Thursday. But he has lots of activities and mini school days between now and then. Today he was scheduled for testing. Man oh man, I wish I was a pushy parent. I want to know what he was tested on. How he did. What he answered.
How does he compare to the others? I just want to know!
But instead, I remove myself from the group of hovering parents, taking Jonah to the playground and just think about how smart and fun and cool that boy is. And when he is done, I give him a BIG hug and in my silliest voice I ask, "Was that the hardest test EVER?!?"
To which Caleb responded, "YES! (Pause) Actually, it was easy. I knowed all the answers."
So I say, "You are the smartest kid EVER!"
And then we headed straight to McDonald's for a hash-brown and some hot chocolate!
