Not exactly for "Show and Tell"

Will is our little sponge: he eagerly picks up on our phrases, learns the lyrics to songs, and will playfully parrot on request… or whenever he thinks a recitation might be funny.

Will was VERY excited to bring mementos from his Dad’s Grand Canyon Trip for today’s Show and Tell. Before school, he even drew a picture of the Grand Canyon to add to the collection of photographs, river guide, and floppy hat he had already gathered to share. (Extra plus: he wrote his name on the picture after finishing the drawing — first writing “M” for “Mommy,” then turning the paper around to make it a “W” and finishing it off with “I-L-L” to write his name. Genius, anyone?)

On the way to school, we asked Will what he was going to do at school today, thinking we’d catch a glimpse of how he was going to describe Paul’s trip. Instead, he surprised us by answering: “I’m going to tell Mrs. Emmy, ‘she’s a BRICK… HOOOWSE!'”
