So, kids are gathered around the kitchen table, doing homework. Dylan finishes his math, and brings me the paper and says, "Can you correct my paper, please?" I ask, "So do I just need to circle the ones that are wrong?" And then comes this very Dylanesque reply: "No, you just need to mark that its all correct."
Can you tell he's not used to getting it wrong? This confidence of his is either going to be his greatest asset or his entire undoing. So far I don't see a lot of swagger or superiority, so I'm really, really hoping for greatest asset. But I'm trying not to take it for granted.
For the record, it was all correct.
