I did go through two boxes of school and scouts stuff - things I pretty much forgot about, cause that's what you do immediately after turning them into the teacher. Things like MY ABC BOOK, a pile of character trait reports, ooodles of term papers and reports (that my kids never do!), art projects, and the like. I'm telling ya, mom saved EVERYTHING. Most stuff was junk, some things were classic, some made me laugh out loud.
Sample character trait report:
"At school this week, I showed Sincerity ... when somebody on the other team struck out and I didn't laugh at them." Wonder if I laughed at anyone on my own team when they struck out?!?
Earlier this week, when the boys were on spring break, Kevin and Thomas made a trek to the Vans SkatePark. They prefer to ride their bikes instead of their skateboards, but it seems a large portion of the time they just seem to hang out looking cool. Right next to the other kids who had to have their moms drive them there, too.
Weather last week was a blazing 100+ degrees for a couple days, then dropped 30+ degrees by Friday. Since that weather pattern causes earthquakes, Thursday night we had a lovely swarm of three to roll around with. Today was a little warmer, lots sunnier. The group of us Cub Scouts went out to the nature center, hiking around with all the mannerisms and the noise level of little boys. We barged right past the Girl Scouts who were quietly listening to the tour guide... yeah, that didn't work for us.... especially since the boys' homemade trail mix consisted of such goodies as cocoa puffs, marshmallows, peanuts, and M&Ms. They loved it, and asked when we were going to go back.
