Stone's Special Day

On Tuesday, Stone's Third Grade Class had bring a "Special Person" to school day. Stone picked Phoenix first and when she was not allowed to be taken out of class to attend (per the school...I disagree with that decision, but whatever) he changed to Zion and Cy.

Their current unit is Poetry in Writing. Each child wrote, shared, and presented their Poem to their special person in front of the whole class. (including everyones special people)

I would like to share Stone's with you:

Zap!
I think he is growing
Out of this world
Never weird

Can sit up
Yeah! She can kind of speak!

Stone was so excited to show off his baby brother and sister to his friends and teachers. He was proud to answer their questions, tell people about how he helps take care of them and their likes and dislikes. He was also showering Zion and Cy with tons of hugs and kisses.



The next day...Stone came home with a Thank You card addressed specifically to Zion and Cy with the above picture attached. I think it sums up our outing to Stones class quite nicely (Stone always has been a master of putting feelings into words)

Dear Zion and Cy
Thank you for coming. I feel special because you came!
Love,
Stone"

Aw, that is so cute. Glad you got to go and hope you weren't fighting off 20 kids plus parents the whole time.

What a sweet boy! Sometimes I think that boys are much sweeter than girls! Girls can be so petty and nasty.

How lame that he couldn't pull his sister out of class, but what a fun adventure for the twins. He's a good boy Chris!

What a cute picture! And when your kids look back, they will remember what a fun day that was and none of the craziness!!(Even stone) I do agree that he should have been able to use Phoenix. She would have loved it!
