Yes, I must brag...

We have great children - they could be considered the best but then we are biased.  Normally I do not mention their accomplishments but this time, I can't help myself.  This past week they both hit one out the park.

Noah had his first Algebra exam and got the highest score in the class including a challenging extra credit problem.  I enjoy math myself so this is one that makes me extra happy.  Sad isn't it? Instead of accomplishments in sports I revel in math success.  Perhaps he's one of those people that is "good with numbers".  Reminds me of this scene from 21.



As for Heber, he received the results of his reading placement test.  Turns out the 10 year old has a reading level of a student halfway through the 10th grade.  So that makes up for all the times we have to get after him for reading instead of doing chores or homework.  Ironic it may be, but that's life in our house.

So the sweet taste of success was in our house this week - and we savored it while giving thanks to the Lord for looking kindly down upon us here in Roseville.

Sorry it's been so long since the last post - but we'll try to do better.  Coming soon - a bow tie and Roman shades.

  1. Not sad. Math is much more important than sports. Reading, of course, is everything. Congrats to your boys!
