I Guess She Comes by it Honestly...

(Warning -- Bragging Mom Moment) Yesterday, my husband and I went to our daughter's school for a parent/teacher conference. We were fairly confident that she was doing well in school, but she even exceeded our expectations, which was a nice surprise! Of course she still has some things to work on, and one item the teacher mentioned had to do with her writing. She pulled out one of our daughter's stories (about the day our carpets were cleaned -- fascinating subject...) and the teacher said, "This was what we refer to as a "Short Moment" writing assignment. I have to say that your daughter's "Short Moments" are not that short..."

I called my friend Christine last night and I mentioned that to her, and she said, "Well, really, have you ever read YOUR BLOG? I can see where she gets it from!" Ok, I guess I can see her point!

So that is the end of today's post -- short and sweet! ;)

Are you kidding me is that all you wrote? I am sitting in this office all by myself and it is almost lunch time and that is all I get to read?

That is hysterical, because I seriously almost added in there something about writing long posts so that Catherine would have something to read on lunch, but then I thought that would be too wordy! (True story!)

Hey I enjoy your "detailed" post too. I say the heck with "them" and post away long or short you always have a fun story to share.
