Times with Tabitha

Grace has been quizzing us for days using a flip question book for sixth graders.

Boy has taken the brunt of these questions.

This morning, Grace asked the following:

"Put in chronological order: Galileo, Isaac Newton, Copernicus."

Do you know the answer?

Well, boy did. However, the answer looked like this:

Copernicus (1473-1543),
Galileo (1563-1642),
Isaac Newton (1642-1727)

Grace didn't just take the names, and required boy give the appropriate birth and death dates in order for the question to be counted as right.

When he couldn't get any of the dates correct, Tabitha proceeded to chastise boy with:

"Robbie, you don't know anything about the Book of Mormon!"

(In Tabitha's defense, Grace struggled with the pronunciations, and said "Isaac Newton" as "Isaiah-ic Newton.")
