We ran into a former student and her mom at the farmers market yesterday. "How's high school?" Heidi asked. "Do you love it?"
Emma shook her head vigorously. "Oh yeah!" she answered.
Heidi and I exchanged shrugs and nods. "That's what they all say," Heidi told her. "Middle school must be pretty rotten."
More knowing shrugs all around.
"Well," her mom said brightly, "at least you two are there. That makes a big difference!"
That was nice.
