It's All Good

I got an email today from a teacher. And it was not good news. Evan got in trouble in class for excessive talking and because this same teacher has referred to him as Ethan for almost half of the year, I had to wonder if she had the right kid. Here's why. My kid? He answers every question with the one syllable "good." My boy? He says fewer than ten words per day at home. My guy? He has never been in trouble before, except for the broken spoon in first grade. So I had to ask him about it, and he said, "Yeah, I got moved."  And that was that. He had used up his word allotment for the day in language class and had no more for me.
