Completly off topic but too funny not to share!

In my son's 2nd grade class they don't do a gift exchange. Instead the teacher sent home 24 sheets of Christmas-y looking paper and each child is supposed to write something nice to each student in the class. Nice idea in theory...

We were going down the list tonight and got to Heather. I asked Aaron if Heather was nice? He said, "Not really." I asked what she's good at? He said, "Stealing books off the teachers desk." I asked if she's a good reader? He said, "Nope." I asked if she's good at Math? He said, "She's good at cheating off my paper during math." I asked if she has any friends? He said, "I think she's friends with Remy." I said, "Is she nice to Remy?" He said, "I think so."

Heather's note reads; "Dear Heather, you are nice to Remy. From Aaron."

I didn't want him to lie, but didn't want to be mean either....

Kids are sooooo cute, aren't they:-) I used to drive a school bus in my other life and, boy what I didn't hear. Some stories their moms and dads would not want told outside the house. Hahahahahaha

When my son was in Kindergarten, each child in the class, on their birthday, got a big book made up of drawings by each student in the class (1 drawing per student) about the birthday child. Then the teacher added what the "draw-er" had to say about the birthday child. He still has it. It is so cute!

I am cracking up! This is too funny - I will have to tell my teacher friends.

I absolutely love this idea. I am a very firm believer that there is always a positive in every situation ..... sometimes in our darkest moments we have to look really really hard to find it, but it is always there! Learning this at such a young age is wonderful! Thank you for sharing!

What a good lesson in diplomacy, which is something all children can benefit from.
