Another Pencil Story
September 30, 2010
I am beginning to feel as though all I do is think of ways to attach pencils to my son.
My son made himself a necklace of paperclips this morning. I thought this was the perfect place from which to hang his pencil. He didn’t agree. He thought it was “dumb.”
This prompted my oldest son to ask, “So where exactly do you draw the line on office supplies as accessories? I mean a paperclip necklace is fine? But the pencil just puts it over the top?”
He has remembered to bring his supplies to class everyday, so he tells me, and since that was the ultimate goal I think we have been successful. Even if his teacher does not find any humor in it.
But he then today forgot his lunch at home. Do I need to devise a way to strap that to his body too?
