All About My Mom by Ian

Ian wrote this at school for mother's day.  The underlined words are what he filled in.  I'm spelling just like he is because it makes it that much better.

My mom's name is mel.*
She has brown hair.*
She has brown eyes.
She is 39 years old.+
She weights 800 pounds.+
Her favorite color is yelloy.*
Her favorite animal is me.*
Her favorite T.V. show is facked or faked. (fact or faked)
She likes to play with me.*
She doesn't like to get angry.*
She is really good at paing bills. (paying bills)+
She isn't very good at stoping my little brother.*+
She likes when I am good and sleep when I'm supost to.*
She doesn't like when I am bad.*
I like when my mom gives me kisses.
I don't like when my mom yells at me, but I still love her.

I have to say a lot of this is true - I put little stars by the ones I'd have to agree with!  I got some pretty good laughs out of the ones with + signs in front.  I guess I need to let him know how old I really am otherwise people are going to think I'm a lot older (well maybe I can use that to my advantage - maybe they will think I look a lot younger!).  Also need to start teaching him how pounds work!  I guess all of the time I spend paying bill is paying off!  And yes I do often have a hard time getting Borne to stop doing things.

I think this little piece of paper will be so much fun to look at in 20 years.  I almost want to try and remember to have him do it every year to see how his answers change year to year.

At the bottom of the page it said this is what she looks like.  Here's the picture he drew.
