Note From The Teacher

When your kid comes home from school with a sealed envelope, you don't exactly hurry to open it. Rarely is a note from the principal's office a good thing.

"It's my EOG test results." Cade tells me.

"So soon?" I reply. He just took the tests last week. Cade's EOG practices weren't very good, so I wasn't sure I wanted to open the envelope. Of course I did.

"Fours on both." I say. "Is that on a scale of 1 to 10?"

"Nope." Cade replys with a wide smile. "Four is the highest."
