I just got back from Parents Only Back To School Night. You get to go listen to your kids’ teachers give their schpeel about what’s going to happen that year and what they expect from the students and how things will go, blah blah blah. It actually was very informative, and I really do like going.
The highlight of my evening? Reading the wall outside Princess’ classroom . . . each student’s picture was on the board next to a piece of paper that started with “This year in school I want to learn . . .” Here is a sampling of answers from various 6 year olds . . .
. . . to read better.
. . . to write the alphabet.
. . . to write without looking.
. . . to mix potions together to make smoke.
. . . to cross the ocean without going in an airplane.
. . . to turn vanilla into chocolate.
And my personal favorite, compliments of my one and only Princess . . .
. . . how to blow puff balls at the ceiling.
