Taneal asked me yesterday if she could stay home from school today. She had been studying for a science test and there was a lot of new information to learn. The teacher said it should be review. Taneal was feeling quite overwhelmed. I asked her if the reason she wanted to stay home was because she wanted to get out of taking the test. She told me it was not the reason, okay maybe a little part of the reason. I told her I would not let her stay home to get out of taking a test. She was to the begging point. She told me if I let her stay home she would clean the entire house for me. This was getting a little tempting. But, I stood my ground and sent a very emotional Taneal off to school today. I helped her study for the test, she will do fine. She didn't think so. Oh, how I love that girl!
