Dylan and Exams

Dylan has had semester exams all week and has had to study so hard. He is not really that motivated when it comes to school, so this requires Patrick and me to partake in his studies also. What we have been doing is letting him go over his notes and study for a little while and then we quiz him. At first he wasn't too happy about it, but for a while we let him try to do his work and study on his own and his grades have suffered. So, we now do it my way which is for him to be quizzed.
After quizzing him each time this week, he really seemed to know everything he needed to. Hopefully, he does really well on them and will have a better report card than last time.
He gets out of school at noon today and doesn't have to go back until Tuesday which will be nice for him. He deserves a break after all his studying and hard work he had to do this week. I know it has not been easy on him!
I am taking him to lunch at McAlister's today to celebrate his being finished and then next week we will be off to a new Semester!
I know he will be glad to finally be able to go back to Tae Kwon Do also - poor guy hasn't gotten to go all week!
