:(

So, after I had a good weekend celebrating Easter, I was on my way home Sunday when out of no where some girl swerves and totals the car I am in...Grrr.

Over break I got into a conversation with my mom about ESL students. She was telling me how they seem to have such a difficult time on the Spelling tests. She said it is really hard for the kids to try to understand the meaning of the word and try to figure out how to spell it. I guess I never realized how hard that would be for someone who doesn't even understand the language completely.

After reading some of the chapters out of grammar snobs, I made my mom read it and she laughed a lot. Even though I tell everyone how much of a grammar snob she is, there were tons of times where she had no idea a rule existed. The book left her a little speechless, and needless to say, she doesn't try to correct my grammar all the time anymore!
