Out of the past

Anent danger on stairs, from my first third-grade report card: “Must try to walk up & down stairs more carefully to avoid accidents to self and others.”

Believe me, I wasn’t dancing. As I recall, the problem was that I talked to other kids while on the stairs. From my second third-grade report card: “Has made an effort to follow Rules of Safety.”

LOL.
Why, you were practically a juvenile delinquent!

That teacher had no imagination.

Yep. I never did get my J.D. card (something that we kids thought was real, not a joke).

I didn’t realize until after I made this post that I quoted this report card in a 2010 post with a class picture. That teacher did not like me. She also faulted me for being talkative in class. And there was more.

Chris, my guess is that she would have heard that as a compliment. :)

Now we know why Talia is so cute---her grandfather was the cutest kid in class!
