We had our parent-teacher conferences about M&A this morning. The upshot: no areas of concern. According to their teachers, the girls are lovely, polite, good at sharing, enthusiastic, and on target with their fine and gross motor skills. The only…
A few funny things: I read the girls a book tonight about a town’s celebration that included a pie-eating contest. I explained to the girls what it was. A said, "I’d like to have a pie test. And then if…
