We went to Starbucks after play rehearsal. We decided we were celebrating Shay's perfect score on her science test--she was the only person in the class who got a 100%, and if you've ever been the person to set the curve, you know how awesome that is--and even more so because she struggled a bit with the subject last year.
Also celebrated: that J finally has gotten the hang of turning in his homework and taking care of his papers. This, too, is a huge accomplishment.
But this was all brought on by Bri's state project--a mobile display on the topic of Texas--getting a perfect score! (I had been so worried! It was a huge project, and it came due while I was away in San Francisco.) We went to school, lugged the project into the backseat, went to rehearsal, and then to Starbucks.
Me, in the car on the highway, finding my view blocked by her display: Uh, Bri, I can't see out the back window.
Bri, with mock excitement: Yes! My project is an A+, and a driving obstruction!
Ha! Please thank Bri for the laugh. And way to go, all three of them, for their accomplishments.
