Did his mom not pass highschool or does she have anxiety problems?
She's also deaf like her husband so some of the sentences may not make sense to her I think.  Since they communicate with mainly sign language when they send a text message the English is broken because they type like how they sign words which is much simpler than the English Language in terms of structure.  Either way it sounds like she needs some help.

WHY THE HELL ARE THEY MAKING KINDERGARTENERS DO WRITING ASSIGNMENTS?! o-O

Seriously apparently my little cousin came home with a double page paper writing assignment, written in normal font not big font I may add, and now his mom is crying because she can't figure it out.  We're gonna go to her house to help figure this out.

Do you know what the assignment is about?

Okay I was able to read the assignment, she texted it to my mom's cell phone and I texted it to my iPhone and it's not that bad.  It's one to three sentences per week based on a prompt, make flash cards with pictures about it and do a presentation on it.  What they have to watch out for is spelling things right, proper pronunciation, make sure they capitalize and put periods at the end of sentences and make sure each word has a 2 finger spaces.  

They basically made something that can be said in a few sentences more complicated by making the instructions 2 pages long.

The instructions were two pages long? Ouch.

Well it was one page front to back, so that's 2 pages.  It was also written in normal font instead of like a bigger font like they would for normal kid stuff.

I'm basically going to highlight the important stuff.

Yeah, that doesn't sound bad at all, even for kindergarten.

Shading yellow is a big pain in the ass.  I redid Hypno's shading about three times.

Not really but he's having a hard time with some things.  He can't recognize some words like "the" "they" and "have".  According to a note he got from school his word recognition is a little lower than usual.  Another problem is since his parents can't speak they can't help him when he can't recognize a word.  

The poor kid is frustrated and I can't blame the kid for not liking the assignment.

Also something I should mention is that both their kids can hear perfectly.

Starting to get tired...

Must be a side effect from painting Hypno.

I haven't slept all night again.
YIPPIE!

Getting 3 hours of sleep last night is getting to me, but I wanted to get 80% of my business plan done so I could get the other 20% done at school today.   That and I procrastinated, luckily my teacher makes things sound harder than they are.

Wow the commercials for Worst Cooks in America kinda seem offensive. :\

And then Mabel the Hypno glares and hypnotizes me to feed her canned cat food.  Afterward, Mabel the Hypno goes and digs in the litterbox for five minutes, poops, digs some more, and then wanders off to sleep on a shelf.  If I open my closet door, Mabel the Hypno will rush in, sit in the middle of the floor, and lick herself.

Basically... she'd be a terrible Hypno. :P

I already knew this but damn I'm not social, or I just don't like working with kids, especially ones with disabilities since I can barely work with my dad. :\. Well my little cousin is the exception, but my brother does a better job at it since his major is, ironically enough, human services.

Surveys sure are weird, but at least since I posted the score in my notes I can just re enter them and print them out tomorrow for class.

Strangest thing ever, a disposable cup for coffee when I received it had a hole in it so when I poured the coffee it started to spill out of it.  At least I wasn't hurt, but that was just weird.
