Practice makes perfect

Rose was very pleased with her maths worksheet tonight and told us "I figured it out all by myself. The boys told me what to put!" Hmmmmmm.

She also asked if she was good at maths. Bit of a difficult moment as I thought about how to answer but Steve gave a suitably diplomatic answer. "Like anything else, you're only as good as you practise". How true. How many of us wish we were better at something but never took the trouble to work at it to get good at it?

Joshua made me smile today when I told him we had to go to "daddy's office" before we went home after pre-school. He turned to his friend - who was coming home with us - and said, "we have to go to the Principal's Office. My dad is the Principal".
I think I've been here before!!
