Bragging on Leslie
Leslie was in the county MathCounts competition Saturday. The team from her school, of which she was a part, finished second in the county! Leslie finished fourth in the county in one of the two individual events! She got two trophies as a result. It's a competition that includes eighth graders, so that made her accomplishment even more impressive.
Pauline's been teasing Leslie unmercifully about this (if teasing is the right word)--telling relatives, people at church, and even strangers in the restaurant where we had a celebratory dinner on Saturday night.

Congrats to Leslie! Good for her. I understand about the teasing. Lillian gets embarrassed when I praise her, too.
Both of your girls inherited their parents capacity for learning. Pauline has every right to brag...I would be if my child was doing so well.
Have to embarrass them young, it is preemptive payback for when they become teenagers.
Good for Leslie!
