sad excitment

I actually performed a happy dance in my office chair when Eldest called today to tell me she's finally passing algebra.

*sigh*

Who thought I would ever cheer for a "D"?

It's a crazy-mixed up house.

Sometimes good enough is good enough. Cheers my dear!

Ah yes, I remember many an office visit where a student had scheduled an appointment to talk about their grade. I remember calculating beforehand, seeing that it was a D, dreading the meeting, and having them practically hug me when they found out they were passing. Huh? Oh, now I get it. Just like the professional exam I took last fall for the 4th time. Got a 5, the minimum you can get and still get credit. Surprised myself by being just fine with that. Monkey off my back. Hurray for Eldest!
