Overheard

Overheard conversation: Beth and Caleb were arguing about which one should be dropped off for school first since Caleb's is closer and starts at nine, but Beth's is farther away and starts at 9:10--which means Caleb is always late for school when I have to drive Beth.

Beth: Caleb I can't be tardy, and that's why mom always drops me off first.

Caleb: What's tardy?

Beth: It's when they put a mark on your report card. And if I get a tardy it will affect whether or not I can go to a good college. BYU is a good college while some other ones aren't, and I really want to go to BYU or at least Mom wants me to. That's why I'm first.

Yes I taught you "Go BYU" and now you are teaching Beth that there are some good and bad schools and that she should strive to go to BYU. LOL

It's true. If comes down to Beth and another equally qualified applicant, those tardies might make a difference.

I love your kids!

(Go BYU!!!!)
