Interview Day

In preparation for NN's middle school interviewed, I spent a couple of nights prepping her and drilling her with questions. I peppered her with a bunch of questions that I thought would be asked... and lo and behold... almost every single one was thrown at us.  I even slipped NN a question to ask for the infamous "Do you have any questions for me?" question... to which our interviewer complimented her on it.  (complimented me).

Then for the typical "What do you want to be when you grow up?" I purposely made a (REALLY!?) face... and the teacher said, "Dad looks surprised."  I made the face so the interviewer won't know we rehearsed it.

As I was putting NN to bed... she said that for a bunch of the questions... she said "Uhmm.. " and "I doooooooooon't know."  here or there.  I didn't fault her.  Any normal person would be nervous under those circumstances.  Then NN said.... she was acting.  She could've answered every single question at ease.  But didn't want to give the impression that we rehearsed it.  BOOM.

And now we wait.....
