Olden days

Nicole is almost a grown up now. She is...er... 8 years old. Well, nine in 25 days this year.

She is learning cursive writing (or running writing, as she calls it) now at school. When practising at home, I noticed that she wrote one of the letters not in the way I thought it was supposed to be in cursive writing. I brought her attention to that and she said, "Oh, this is how I am taught at school. My teacher also told me she was taught that way (my way) when she was at school. It was in the olden days. It is different now".....

Oh,...good olden days!...
