As part of a teacher appreciation gift, we came up with a fun card for Nicholas' teachers. It involved buying lots of "fun size" candy bars which Nicholas thoroughly enjoyed munching on the leftovers. Here's a picture of the card we made:
In case it isn't clear from the picture the card reads:
Dear Mrs. Carrico,
Thank you for working EXTRA hard with a room full of ATOMIC FIRE BALLS. You turn a class full of BUTTERFINGERS and SNICKERS into a beautiful SYMPHONY. We've CRUNCH-ed the numbers and you are worth more than 100 GRAND. You're the best teacher in the MILKY WAY.
HUGS AND KISSES,
Nicholas
I had planned to take Nicholas for a sno-cone after school to celebrate the beginning of summer. When I picked him up he was covered with red stain that I learned was from a popsicle. I might would have decided to skip the sno-cone since he had already eaten the popsicle but by then I was already craving a sno-cone for myself so off we went.
Nicholas ordered a coconut sno-cone. We talked to the sno-cone guy as he made them. He said most flavors are good but he isn't too fond of Kiwi. Nicholas gobbled down his sno-cone and said he wanted another one. Guess what flavor he wanted to try? KIWI! He's so silly. I reminded him that the guy just said it wasn't a good flavor. Nicholas said, "It will be a good flavor for me!" So we went back up to order and the guy chuckled when Nicholas placed his order. He offered to add some other flavors to it to make it even better. Nicholas ended up with a cool looking tri-colored sno-cone that he again gobbled down.
All sno-coned out, we made our way back home. From his school bag, Nicholas pulled out a treat bag that his teachers had given him. He spread the contents out on the stairs. He loves to spread out things like this and then pretend to sell items from his store. We used to play this game to help him learn about using money but somewhere along the way he decided that it made the game too much work. So now everything you "buy" at his store is FREE! I had to grab a quick picture of him at his store. You can see from his face that as I was taking the picture he said, in his best whiney voice, "Another picture! Geez!"
