Prepping on Inauguration Day
We had 1/2 day of academics today, although my fifth grader and I were working on math until 10:00 tonight (followed after his soccer party). I’m up tonight catching the recorded version of the Inauguration while I read more on the Asian culture and how they raise their kids. Big differences compared to the typical American culture.
Sidenote-How much work has Joe Biden had on his face? Is it surgery or Botox? Either way, he looks 10 years younger than the last time I saw him on TV!
