Coincidences create new routines

Since I have been and still am partly sick, I haven't really had the energy to get involved in the world's most perfect teenager's schoolwork with the hope that not much will happen in the second week of the last semester of grade 11. But apparently he has his first exam of the semester tomorrow, in math. According to the offspring, he has studied a bit on his own, but probably far from the hours I would have required if I had been "fit for fight". To top it all off, the exam tomorrow is about trigonometry at a level I've never studied.

I had to deviate from our regular routines for his exam and had Junior explain each part to me instead. I barely understood anything but managed with the motto "fake it until you make it" throughout his entire presentation. All I can hope for now is that he has understood everything correctly and that the exam goes well for him tomorrow.

Regardless of the outcome, I will implement this routine in Junior's preparations for all upcoming exams as I have noticed that he appreciated having to explain everything to me.
