Proud Mommy Moment: Values

A week or so ago Lucas brought home a paper from school. On the top of the page there was the following picture.
And as the instructions say they were supposed to write a story about the picture. Lucas added the pot of gold himself-chalk it up to being near St. Patrick's day I guess. And his quick and limited coloring I am sure was due to them running out of time and having to rotate to the next center.

I was excited to see what story Lucas would tell. Maybe we would find out what was happening to that poor sheep! Or maybe a nice story about the boy with the kite, he knows how to spell those words.

So what did Lucas write?
"My favorite thing is a pot of gold because it will mace (make) mee rich!"

Ah, what a proud mommy moment.

I am so glad he is learning the important values in life.

Have you had any proud mommy moments?

  6. Ha ha! Having impeccable kid reading skills, due to my job, his writing was fairly easy to read. At least he knows what's important in life.

    The other day my 9 year old said to me in a shocked voice, "Mom, you're actually in a good! You're usually just yelling at everyone!"

    I guess at least she noticed the short lived good mood...
