The blocks for dummies brought back a memory from when my son, now nearly 16, was taken for his 18 month check, with the health visitor. He failed. He was six and a half weeks premature and really shouldn’t have been tested at that stage anyway. Anyway, I digress, one of the things he had to do was make a tower of three bricks. He couldn’t do it. When I got home I took his shoes off, and all these blocks appeared from the leg of his trousers. He must have been dropping them down the bib of his dungarees. I was so embarrassed then, but I can see the funny side now! He did pass both the 18 month check and the hearing check second time around by the way.

About Me
Hello! My name is Karen and welcome! I'm a mom to two young men - Dude (19) and Jazz (17). I've been married to the same wonderful, patient, thoughtful and generous man (Kevin) for 22 years.
I work full time in a healthcare clinic - it's my "day" job. I work on school websites after hours. I squeeze in family time and blogging in between all of that.
I believe in Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Writing Well. (I also believe in our Constitution - Don't Tread on my Rights, Yo).
I can be snark-a-licious, but only when provoked or when confronted with ignorant, ill-informed knuckleheads.
(Talk to your school's Parent/Teacher organization about budgeting for a new school website. Isn't it time YOUR school developed a better, cheaper, and more efficient way to communicate with your students and parents?)
HAHA! It sounds like your son pulled one over on the health visitor.
