Drew told me of a talk he and Rachel had the other day that really lifted my spirits. They were discussing the kids in school, who was smart, etc. And then Drew told her that it was good to be smart AND work hard, because some kids are smart but they don't work hard, and if they don't, then they don't do well in school. And some kids may not be that smart, but if they work hard, they can do better in school than kids who are smart.
And oh, do I know some kids from Hackensack who fit the first description to a T.
"What kind of person do you think I am?" Rachel said.
"You're the best kind," he replied. "You're smart AND you work hard."
He reports that she was quite pleased to hear that.
