Maths Shmaths

Maths exam today.

It didn't go so well :-/

I was at home and there was the longest roll of thunder just as the exam was starting.

I hope that's not a bad omen, I thought.

It was.

She was very upset when she got out of the exam, got more upset on the way home, and was not doing so great by the time she got here.
We hugged.
We talked.
Its just maths, I said.
It doesn't matter, I said.
But it does, and I wanted to cry for her.
She tries so hard, and copes with so much, they should give her an A* and a medal just for turning up.
