Sigh.
All I will say is, at the end of my "roundtable discussion with current parents", after Anna and all the other children came bounding back into the room with their little flashlight souvenirs, I was very happy that Anna jumped on my lap, smiled, asked me to open my mouth, and shined her little light inside.
How cute is this?, I thought. Clearly, any admissions professional would be able to see that Anna loves me and we are connected and she is brilliant and interested in lots of things like teeth and tongues and excited to explore and will obviously be hugely successful.
(As soon as she graduates from college. Which is some time after she starts Kindergarten.)
All of this was clear to me.
Let's just make it brutally clear to everyone else, shall we?
Wow Anna, what do you see?
"Hmmmnnn, Mommy. Well, I see a tooth. And a tongue. And cavities... "
[Hmmnn, mention of cavities maybe not so great but maybe we will count as dental diversity or something]
"... and a piece of apple stuck in your teeth."
Hah! Funny, eh?
Hope none of the current parents were too bothered by that.
