Mom anxiety level: high. Chloe’s on the livestream at the school Scrabble championships. She’s bingoed twice so far: INSTATED and LOITERED. Wait, now it’s three! PReDATE.
😬😬😬

Opponent has bingoed with BROWNIES , RATOONED, and CALaSAYA. This is serious.

Final score: Chloe wins 463-416. This is not your grandfather’s #Scrabble game.

Correction: CALiSAYA. Not CALaSAYA.

Chloe scored big with ZeIN and XENON. This game went so fast, and was so skilled, even the expert play-by-play announcers were speechless. #proudmom #schoolscrabble
