Tyler did his first book report! I am so proud of him. I am also amazed that they are assigning out book reports in kindergarten now. When I was in kindergarten all we learned how to do was color on paper instead of walls and pronounce our own names correctly. Well, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but I'm sure that I didn't do a book report. Anyway, Tyler chose to do his on a book called "A Fish Out of Water." I don't know if it's his favorite book, but it's by far my favorite book to read to him so he might have picked it to make me happy. It's about a boy who feeds his fish too much and it turns into a giant fish.
Jared and I helped Tyler to make a paper mache fish sculpture and type out 5 sentences about the book. It was a big hit at parent night! Unfortuneatly, all the other kids had posters and so Tyler felt left out and wished that we'd done a poster instead. So here's advice for all you budding parents out there - don't be creative or awesome, just help your kids make boring old posters.

I wonder when and why we change from wanting to fit in to wanting to stand out. Maybe we just get more sophisticated in our methods of fitting in. I think the fish is awesome.
