4 D grandkids

At this time of year they are getting their exam results and as grandson is in his first year at his new school we were a little nervous at how he is getting on. The granddaughter who is in her third year we know is doing exceptionally well but the grandson not so sure about. They are my youngest daughter’s children I mention this here because of what follows. How did you get on in maths I asked? I got an A; grandson replied followed by how much he hated maths. I enquired about German? A; again. This went on for a few more subjects and I start to pretend to tease him by yawning and claiming it was getting boring. “It’s in your genes” I told him. “I know I get it from my Dad” he said with that cheeky smile of his.
