Cute and Not-So-Cute

Cooper:  On a recent visit to my parent's house, we went for a walk in the woods.  On our way we found some white hair, in some of the branches, on the ground.  My cousin, who lives next door to my parents, has a Husky/Malamute, so we assumed it was her hair on the branches.  We asked the boys what they thought the hair was from and their responses were:

Cameron:  "I think it's from a bunny."
Cooper:  "I think it's Santa's hair."  (Coop's was our favorite!)

Cameron:  Cameron is required to go to "Power Hour" at Kidstop every day after school.   If he goes he's able to get some or all of his homework done, so he is able to relax and have fun when he gets home.  I prefer he saves the reading for at home to do with Bryant or me, but sometimes he reads to adults at Kidstop.  If he reads at Kidstop he needs to bring a note home signed by the person who read with him...I've learned I need to verify this information and I was correct.  Yesterday, he brought a note home that he'd read...let's just say it was his first OFFICIAL forgery.  "R.V. read with Cameron."  R.V. are the initials of a fourth grader and all info. was spelled correctly, however the handwriting was unmistakable!  Bryant and I are still deciding whether to be impressed with his ingenuity or appalled that at age 7 1/2 he's already forging information!
