Thanks for reminding me why I don't want kids, Sevens. :)

Though I gotta say, I feel like Jonah may have a point here. He's nine; sending a note home from the teacher seems a bit much. I mean, Grey Poupon is just a funny name! (Reminded of reading the Horatio Alger stories in 11th grade. A few people in the class couldn't get past the name of the main character.)

Wait, do nine-year-olds know what "cringe" means?

Also, it's an easy word to mix up, but in this case you want principal, not principle. One is a human and one isn't if you want an easy way to remember it.

Love the idea you went with here, telling a story without telling any of the story! Well done.

Ha! Thanks for finding the typo; one of those things that’s easy to know but even easier to autopilot your way into forgetting.

I also agree that a note home over giggling during a presentation is a little much. That’s why I forged my moms signature back in the first grade
