Today in K-2 there was a Vietnamese girl, sharing the same name as a 4th grader I know at the same school, KN. Sometimes she is cross-eyed; she is also very quiet. But she was smiling... there was another girl, Hispanic, who has a lazy eye. She reminded me of a couple of other Hispanic girls with the same physical problem.

The class was rather well-behaved, but the parent volunteers did try to keep them quiet--they know what their teacher expects. I tend to be a bit easier-going; I can't find sufficient reason to cooperate so well with the system in that regard.
