His teacher says: “He had a great day!”

And I say: “Really? Oh, great!”

And she says back to me: “Yes it was a good day…he only tripped a deaf child in the hallway.”

And stunned I say: “Um…I don’t consider that a good day.”

And she closes by: “Trust me. It is.”

This happened well before winter break from school. But it’s a good teaser for my next post, which will address life with Gage’s new “Child Management Program” and why it should really be named “Parent Behavior Modification Program.”
