Tonight S3 handed me a paper he'd had to write for his comp. class about our family's Christmas traditions. He wrote a really nice little essay about waking up and having a fantastic breakfast at a beautifully decorated table before opening gifts and then traveling on to grandparents' homes to continue the festivities. He wrote it in such a way that it sounds magical, wonderful and oh so very Martha Stewart-ish. It's all made up.
I asked him if it was supposed to be a story or if it was supposed to be factual. He said, "Well the teacher said it's supposed to be our real traditions but how is she going to know?"
That's my boy!

Smart kid!
Oh that's funny! My son is loathe to stretch the truth to make an essay more descriptive or funnier. He would rather write about our boring life and have it be factual. Drives me nuts.
That cracks me up!
Way to go Martha! hahaha
Haha! That was great!
That totally cracks me up! Great answer S!!
