Well known fact #1
Hollace hates, absolutely hates to get her photo taken
Fact #2
Hollace hates homework, especially math, reading, writing, well all of it (except science and art)
Fact #3
Hollace got all 12 spelling words WRONG on last weeks spelling test
Today all these facts are shattered
Tonight we went to the church to get our free 8×10 family portrait taken for the church directory. Hollace did great then told me she didn’t mind getting her picture taken anymore. I got my new Rolleiflex yesterday and she has already volunteered for a photo.
Tonight Hollace actually complained that the math homework was only one page, she wanted to do more! Huh, what? And we found a book she is really enjoying to read, I mean she really looks forward to it. That has never happened before. And while looking at the Scholastic book order Hollace put in a request for Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi. She said it will help her math and looks interesting.
And on fact #3, it really isn’t all her fault that she failed that spelling test, we didn’t go over any of the words. That is one part of her homework that keeps falling through the cracks. So this week we went over the words really only one night but they sticked. She knows them all. She is so going to ace that test tomorrow.
