December 12

Isaac's been fighting a cold this week, so when he asked if he could stay home from school this morning, I said okay under two conditions: one, no video games. And two, he had to study for his upcoming math final. He said okay.

And he kept his word.

When I got home from running errands, I found him camped out at the dining room table, pencil in hand, plugging away at a math problem. And remarkably, his phone was nowhere to be seen.

I feel blessed that I can trust him, because I know that's not always the case with teenagers.
