Clever French Commercial

We had a meeting with Counselling and Disability Services at the college K is planning to attend in the fall.  He has a non-verbal learning disability which unfortunately impacts his academics.  He appears normal in every other way including socially.  M and I are happy to know he will be accommodated in every way possible.  The counsellor put us right at ease.  We have to get a consulting letter from his psychologist regarding extra time on tests and a few other matters.   College will be a big jump from high school and we will take it one step at a time.  K's priority at the moment is to somehow get his own car.  At the very least, this would be contingent on graduating high school.  He will turn 18 in April, and enter the period of emerging adulthood.  Yikes.

I was walking through the mall and saw this stunning prom dress on display. Isn't it pretty?




And here is a very clever French commercial!

    Good luck and best wishes to K. I preferred college to high school because of the freedom to come and go as I pleased. It was a wonderful experience for me. Hope your son will have fond memories, also. Those prom dresses are pretty, but not my style. And what an amusing French commercial.
