Yesterday Sam had a friend over who started the year going to a charter school, but a few weeks after school started, went back to his old school. Mitch asked why he did that and he said that at the charter school they made him take all kinds of tests and found out he is really smart (he's super smart) and they made him take (free) college courses. Well, he was having NONE of that because in college there's lots of homework! Yuck! No thanks!
Mitch told me this story and we laughed and even as I was laughing at how dumb a smart kid can be, I glanced out the window to see my own brilliant little daughter bent over in front of the car and she may or may not have been licking the headlight. Mitch and I watched her for a while and we couldn't decide if she was actually licking it or just resting her face on it. Either way her head was really close for a weird amount of time. I stepped out of the door and said, "WHAT are you doing?" She said, "What do you mean?" innocently. I said, "I mean with your FACE on the headlight?" She said, "I was just looking at it." Maybe she needs new glasses.

I have mixed feelings about charter schools. And your daughter is a cutie!
