Tonights homework involved Cole reading part of a poem. For some reason Cole could not read this poem without laughing so hard and turning red. The poem started out, "The tree stands still on a hill, on a hill. The tree stands still on a hil. A twig is on the tree, on the tree. A twig is on the tree. A leaf is on the twig, on a twig. A leaf is on the twig. " You get the picture. Cole read this poem many times using different voices. So I decided to show him how to read poetry. This only made matters worse. More laughing. I then had him read the poem for his dad. Even more laughing with David making matters worse. I see that poetry appreciation runs in the family, in the family. Poetry appreciation runs in the family.
Sometimes my kids can say the funnest words. This morning it was so foggy outside that it was difficult to see. Katie says, "I can't believe how froggy it is this morning." Cole agreed that it was very froggy. Katie sometimes says allergy for alert when playing battle with her brother. Cole says that he takes durteck (Zurteck) for allergies. They were singing, "The weather outside is nightfull, the sun is so delightful, since we have no place to go, Let it snow." Well, at least they say I love you just right.
