Darren: "Satisfaction."
Mommy: "Actually, they stand for 'satisfactory,' which means okay."
Darren: "What's better than 'satisfactory?"
Mommy: "Well, there are plenty of words that mean better than satisfactory, but satisfactory is the best word they use on interims."
Sarah: "Maybe they should use 'P's' for 'phenomenal.'"
Mommy: "I think you are phenomenal for remembering that phenomenal begins with a P."
[*While I am the very first to declare my children ultra-bright, before you start dialing up Mensa on their behalf (behalves?), know that "phenomenal" has long been a family favorite, and we've addressed that it--and many others---aren't 'F' words, but "PH' words.----CRL]

oh my goodness! what a smartie!
Oh my.. big words, how old are they?
I've called Mensa.
They are coming over to check out Sarah.
They are going to teach her the secret handshake.
I think our children would be very good frieds if we lived closer!
even still - good for them! I'm very big on good spelling.
Wowsa! That girl deserves ALL P's on her next report!!
Well, I do not want to sound redundant but seriously, your kids are the smartest! Phenomenalis correct!!!
Cheryl - playing Way Back When-esday tomorrow and I am pre-posting it to post 5:30 am - we will be gone tomorrow. Can you add me to the list please?
WOW...can I say SMART!!!
oooh - she IS a smartypants :) Nice!
fenomenal starts with a "ph"? really? :)
Super teacher! Love that you throw them ph-oenetic curve balls!
Good for her!
I still think they are brilliant independent thinkers and if I can get my kids to be thinking like yours at that age, I will feel like I did a great job. Ps. I have informed MENSA who will be dropping you an email shortly;-)
I think it's fantastic she remembered that! Just for that, they SHOULD give P's on interims!
I still think they are brilliant, even with your disclaimer. :)
