>We had soccer practice today. I’m a soccer mom, and the wife of the coach, so I had to bring the balls. Jack wasn’t too happy about it!

In continued Luke/bookworm news, Luke turned down a play date today to read instead. And last’s nights homework was to find all the compound words in a book about maps. Luke thought compass was a compound word. I said, “What? Comp and ass?” He said, “No, com and pass.” I said, “Com isn’t a word, use it in a sentence.” He replied, “Dot com.” Then between the two of us, we couldn’t figure out if highway was a compound word or not. So we went to bed and finished the homework in the morning. Yes, I am already stumped by first grade homework!
