The Letter F

It was Aid's week to take home the "letter box" from school. The instructions are to find things that start with the letter F around your home and put them in the box.

Our letter was the letter F.

I got very excited about doing a school assignment with Aid. Maybe too excited. I found myself rummaging around our house for things. I was feeling very pleased with my findings. Then Bob burst the bubble...."I think you're supposed to do this with Aid." Feeling like the worst parent in the world I brought the box over to Aid.

"Look Aid! I found some things that start with the letter F! Like FOOTBALL!"

"Football starts with the letter B."

"Nope, it starts with the letter F! So does Fire Truck!"

"NO IT DOESN'T! It starts with the letter B!!!"

"It really doesn't Aid, it starts with the letter F! What else can we find!"

"IT STARTS WITH THE LETTER B!!!!"

I continued filling the box hoping that his teacher would have better luck then I did.

Good Grief. He isn't going to make this easy for me is he?

  1. LOL!!! Rylie has had one really fun homework assignment so far, an All About Me collage. The teacher sent home a big ME cut out on construction paper, and thankfully Ry had the creativity bug and instead of coloring random scribbles and claiming them as artwork that described her, we printed pictures off the computer and cut them out of magazines, then wrote little descriptions of them under it. It was fun for the whole family - we were all at the table looking for "Rylie" in magazines, lol.
