Wondering, Wandering, and Writing

     We decided before our little vacation that we would take NO schoolwork with us – no worksheets, no books.  We would not even have Damain practice right and left.

     But today we headed home and it’s back to schoolwork.  On the way home, Chuck decided to get in a little right/left practice with Damain.  The conversations went something like this.

Chuck: Damain, which side of the truck is Mama sitting on?
Damain: The passenger side.
Laughter all around.

Chuck:  But is she to your right or left?
Damain: Neither really.  She’s in front of me and on the passenger side.  (Damain was sitting on the driver’s side behind Chuck.)

Chuck: Okay, which hand do you hold your fork in?
Damain: Either one.  I use my spoon in my right and my left.  I pick up a knife with my left and my right.  I pick up my fork in either hand, whichever I feel like.
Me:  But you tend to use one hand more than the other.  Which one?]
Damain:  Whichever I feel like.

Chuck: Okay, which hand do you write with?
Damain:  My dominant one.

We gave up.  Right/left practice: 0.  Vocabulary:  Not bad.
