This was written in pencil in my mother’s handwriting on the back of a floor plan from my high school. You think she was a wee bit frustrated with her brood, perhaps?
In June, my dad gave me a bunch of my old school papers and things and I’m just now getting around to sorting them. I’ve found all my report cards from preschool through fifth grade, most of the rest through high school, and stories written for class (some with my name spelled in different ways - I was trying things out, you know) and filed in a Return of the Jedi folder that was apparently bought at Target, on clearance for 15 cents.
Next I’ll post the commentary from my preschool teacher, Mrs. Curry.
Wow. I haven’t changed much.
that’s awesome that your mom saved some of that for you. it is amazing to think that the acts of love and kindness, care and concern that i invest in now WILL be important to my children in the future.
i really like that. what your mom said, i mean. i am sure at the time it was one of those obnioxious things parents say, but it’s so true.
