Changing Seats

Lily had a difficult confession yesterday at dinner. It seems that she got into trouble for talking to Carson at school. Either she or Carson had to get moved and Ms. Snoots gave them each a little talk. She likely is not going to get her 3 "yes" reports this week, but that's not the worst thing in the world.

Lily really was trying to be quiet, but Carson kept trying to get her to talk. He eventually engaged her on a matter of great importance. They were discussing the manufacture of chocolate milk. I'm not sure how Carson presented it, but Lily explained that they start with regular milk, add chocolate, and mix. I think she got it right, but it's a shame she got into trouble setting the boy straight.

We explained to her that she didn't have to talk to him just because he wanted her to talk. That's easy to discuss at the dinner table, but it's obviously tougher when they are in class. She's working on it.
