It is funny how when it comes time to do homework, we don’t have what is needed. I swear I made sure we had a dozen or so rulers. I think we had extra. I put extra ones in their bags. I could have had a ruler sale.
We had a plan of attack. Do your homework, eat, and then you can play with your friend. That is how it was supposed to go. Things never go the way they are supposed to go.
I was not about to go out an buy another ruler. There must be some other solution. I know I have measuring tapes around the house. We will use a measuring tape. She will miss out on playing with her friend. She found her ruler. I did not have to remind her to do it. She knew the reward was to get to play with a friend. Sometimes, that is all it takes.
