Shetlands are mean.

James has had a verbal-facility breakthrough! He just brought me blocks that said “G-O” and said, “I made the word ‘Go’! “ James has shown no sign of understanding how letters make words up to this point.

You’d be mean too, if you were littler than all the other guys!

The most docile horses I’ve ever ridden have been a Morgen and a Welsh mountain pony.

Thoroughbreds are too high-strung for me. I don’t even like being around them.

I’m glad James is finally getting the picture! (So-to-speak!)

Some kids are just slower than other at certain things.

When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.

Prolly some dead Chinese guy sais something like that once or twice.

Anyhooo...

...I've found it to be true that, when the fuel of personal desire is present, kids will take off and learn in a day or two what it takes weeks of drilling to try and teach the uninspired.

(Multiplication tables, anyone??)
