My 2nd grader had to write about one of his vacations. I suggested Disney World… which he immediately said no. Then he said he wanted to write about going to Mammaw’s house. When he started writing I was spelling Mammaw for him and he wanted to use her first name. I said no. I explained she was called that because we have Grandma and Pop. Then he said he wanted to write about Grandma and Pop. I must say I am pleasantly surprised how well this story is developing. He is writing a paragraph a night. He has so many nice things to say about his grandparents! I can’t wait til is done and then I’ll post it in it’s entirety. Still, the convoluted way he came to do it is beyond me. He is doing such a great job I can’t believe it wasn’t his first choice. I’m just happy he has such a wonderful feeling about his grandparents. Life is good.
