Pain is temporary

Except when it’s not. Poor Scott today was dying of a toothache. Like dying of a toothache. I just felt so bad for him, knowing how hard it is to focus when you’re in extreme pain. I hated leaving him knowing how much pain he was in. But that’s how Thursdays go… I leave when I leave to go further my learning.

The one thing about today that was weird was that we ran into an issue over cheating versus using resources. Our kids were taking a vocab assessment and two of the words were up on the wall. I didn’t want them to use them because I would see it as cheating, which I don’t tolerate at all. Scott saw it as using their resources…. While I can understand his idea, it was very black and white for me. Just like my brother, there are some things that I just see one way or another. Yes or no. Right or Wrong. This one I saw as cheating or honesty. No matter how much I want to see it his way. I just can't. I don't like cheaters...
