Do you have the look?

Sometimes I feel like my kids are smarter than I am. L & O have been taking Martial Arts Classes. It is a great place and they love it. Each class the instructors pick one or two students to get a star card. O got it 2 classes in a row. L was very dissapointed not to get it. I explained that learning is the best prize and as long as she learning, that is what counts. (BLAH< BLAH BLAH to her ears) At the end of our talk she said. "I just don't have the look." I asked her what she meant and she went on to say that some kids just have that look that always get noticed. She came up with this plan that she wanted me to give her a special hair do. I told her I would only do it if she wanted it just to want it, not to try to earn the star card. Sure enough that class she was picked.
