NO MORE MATH


"I'm finished with math forever!" exclaimed the junior in highschool. It was the final day of geometry. "No more numbers for me!" She managed to make her way through college without another math class, believe it or not. Sure, she did math without thinking about it, probably on a daily basis. But she managed to get a husband that liked to do all the financial business of the family, plus the grocery shopping! Wow! What a guy! Anyways, all that to say, this woman, with an absolute aversion to numbers, is now taking ALGEBRA I. Reason? She is a mother. I am convinced that mothers will do anything for love. They will fight tigers, walk on nails, give birth, and... take math with their 16 year old homeschooled sons!
