Doh!

I have to say my students are not very bright sometimes. I caught two (seniors) looking up the word plot in one of my French dictionaries, because they didn't know what it meant. Another kid asked me if I still went to college, because I had a baby when I was 19. This was just the last 30 minutes of my day. We were learning nationalities in one of my French classes, and they had to match the nationality w/ the city... none of them knew Beijing, Havanna, Bruxelles, or Geneva...very few knew Tokyo or Montreal. Scary, eh? Someone has there work cut out for them next year.
Caleb and Chloe did well last night, we'll see how it goes, I suppose.
We are back to a routine now...took Dy and Li to occupational and speech therapy today and they were glad to get back. Dylan took off his socks and climbed into this great big tub of rice and I poured more rice down his shirt. I have to say I was jealous. We used to have a tub of pinto beans in his room, but there were too many times that we would find him naked, curled up in the tub. There's nothing worse than finding a butt bean in your shoe. He outgrew the tub, but it provided hours of cheap entertainment. He kind of reminds me of Amélie.
Ok, my timer's beeping...dinner is ready!
