Kindergartners and Mother's Day

[peapod1980]

The kindergartners at our school hosted a Mother's Day coffee today--coffee, donuts, songs, gifts, etc. Each kid had made a book about his/her mom. The pages were fill in the blank, ex.: "My mom is good at..." etc., and then they illustrated the pages.
One of the moms came up to me and said her daughter had done a page that said, "My mom isn't good at being in high places." The illustration had her in hysterics: it was the mom, riding in a hot air balloon, throwing up on the people on the ground below! :funn:

That is hilarious! That age is the best. I am going to one of those Mother's Day get togethers with my kindergartener tomorrow. He already said "mom, there's a surprise ... I can't tell you about the movie." Can't wait to see what's in store.

What's funnier is that it was completely made up! I asked the mom if she's afraid of heights, and she said no!
The kindy teacher came up to me and asked what I'd thought of my book because she loved the "My mom is good at..." page Li'l Pod #3 did. He finished it with "making me happy." She thought it was the sweetest thing ever.
Have fun tomorrow, TFT!

A friend of mine's daughter said she drank red wine all the time....The friend's staunch Baptist mom did not think it nearly as funny as we did.

A few years ago we went to Seagrove with my 2 sisters and their families. When my sister's little boy went to Sunday school the next week the teacher asked him if anything exciting happened on his vacation. He said his Uncle David (my hubby) just drinks and drinks Red Dog Beer. To this day we don't know where he came up with that. What is Red Dog Beer.

Oh, I love it!
Another mom told me today her daughter had put in a book with the theme "My mom loves..." the response--laughing and eating bacon. The illustration sounded hilarious!

Dylan rushed home today and couldn't wait for me to open my mother's day gift. It was wrapped beautifully with construction paper and cut out flowers.
I opened it and it was a book of poetry that the teacher had put together. The whole theme was:
Honey, I love

here's Dylan's contribution:

My Mama makes perfect cookies, nice and soft like pillows.
I love the way my mama bakes even when she burns them.
I like the way my mama laughs when somethings really funny.
Honey,let me tell you I love the way my mama laughs.
I love the way my mama laughs.
