to dr. seuss
this picture was taken last week. aidan's class walked over to the downtown library to celebrate the cat in the hat's 50th birthday. the kids learned a lot about dr. seuss, read several of his books, and were able to come up with their own rhymes. "little cat with a bat" and "we fight all night" were among aidan's book of rhymes. how appropriate!
there is always interesting discussion during carpool after school. i take home two of the boys' good friends each monday, wednesday, and friday. with a van full of kids ranging from 7-2 yrs. old, the trip is quite noisy and usually humorous. aidan and asa, both 6 yrs. old, will share bits of their day and run most truths learned past ezra, who is 7. after the mentioned field trip, the boys were discussing dr. seuss' age. they said that he would be 103 and certainly must be dead. right ezra? ezra agreed that 103 sure is old.
later that day, aidan grabbed a bucket full of sidewalk chalk and headed out the front door. he drew a big heart and began carefully coloring it in. afterwards, he wrote a note under his heart. he explained that the note was to dr. seuss saying: "surely he can see this from heaven. i want him to know that i just love his books."
