Scrabble

For her birthday Maya got a Scrabble game and last night we went head to head and she was pretty good - but not good enough. Sure she's only in fourth grade, but I had to whoop her lest she begin to think that now that she's a big ten-year-old she's smarter than the authority in the house. Part of parenting is finding those unique teaching moments and breaking the will of the child - it all builds character.
