Not My Kid
| Posted in Goose | 3 Comments » |
The other afternoon, Goose tells me “mom, I get three trips to the treasure box this week because…”. Honestly, I wasn’t listening because I hate the treasure box. Just more crap for me to capture and throw away without him noticing. And he notices when his stuff goes missing.
Later I went over his work and he pointed out a sheet of paper and commented this is the one I was talking about earlier. When I wasn’t listening. I asked for the story again. Turns out the teacher forgot to give him a worksheet when he left early the day before so she had him complete the work that morning. She gave him a 100. Then he noticed that he missed one, moving his grade to 83.
So he got a trip to the treasure box for honestly.
Seriously, who the hell is this kid. I’d like to say I’m proud, but really, he should know better.
From Jenn:
I’m surprised that she moved his grade. 100 > treasure box toy, right?
From Nicole:
Nope, we have a crappy little note pad and an 83. Seriously, I wanted to kill him!
From Jill:
Random question…..does Goose read the Hank the Cowdog books?? My mom highly recommends this series to 3rd and 4th graders to read. I loved these when I was little, as well. We were talking about the author the other day – he did a video chat with my mom’s class that was really neat, and I thought about you and Goose!
