My kid's teacher called to say something good
Literally jumped when I saw the school number on my phone because usually its not great news. Turns out my oldest has been showing real improvement in his reading and helping other kids in the class. Teacher said he's developed into a real leader in the classroom. Got off the phone and immediately wanted to tell someone because this is the stuff that matters. We're taking him to his favorite restaurant this weekend to celebrate.
Those calls are rare but they hit the best. Makes all the homework battles and bedtime routines feel worth it. What did the teacher say?
