Home schooled: Sunlight angling through the window, dappling the work table. Scholars bent over their lessons in monastic dedication. The quiet hum and thrill of self-directed youngsters devouring knowledge ...

PastyD Sent the 9 y/o for his math notebook and a pencil. He comes back with the dog. Logic might dictate that toy fox terriers cause amnesia.

PastyD Third times the charm, right? No. Still no math notebook, but I've seen the dog twice now and the third time I get a white board. Yet I hope.

PastyD Woo hoo! We now have a math notebook, math workbook, pencil, white board, and a toy fox terrier. We're all set. We just need a valium now.

PastyD That last tweet was sent by the toy fox terrier...and they say dogs aren't smart. Pishaw.
