I am on spring break this week and loving it! The much needed time off has been dearly appreciated. When I do have time off, I enjoy doing my spring cleaning and reorganizing. Somehow it helps relax the mind and relieve some of the daily stresses of the typical work days. As I was cleaning a pile of papers that had seemed to be stacked in a corner of my room-forming it's own life- I stumbled upon a flip book that my son made when he was in the second grade. Each of the pages are below:

My son is now in the 8th grade and will be heading to high school next year. I showed it to him to see if he remembered making it. After looking through it a while, I asked him-"do you know what it is?" He states "Do you know or are you asking me about it?" I tell him: "I do know what you are doing, but I want to know if you know or if you remember." Ha! Then it hit him what he was doing. He says "Mom, it says I love you." What a sweet memory I have of my child. I thank the wonderful teacher who provided me with such a memorable keepsake of my son.
If your children are on spring break, I hope you are enjoying every moment with them. |
