I Had A Dream...That Someone Was Baking Cookies

Jarrah: Is it Sunday?

Sam: Yes! And tomorrow is Monday. Normally, you would go to school on Monday, but tomorrow is a holiday for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Did you learn about him in school?

Jarrah: Yeah.

Sam: You did? What did you learn?

Jarrah: We read a book...and he wroted the book.

Sam: What was the book about?

Jarrah: It was a book about smelling.

Sam: (wide-eyed) Smelling? What about smelling?

Jarrah: I don't know.

Sounds so much like something that one of my students might say! At least on some days it feels that way! What a cute little story.

That MLK was a man of many talents--a book on smelling! Incredible. Glad Jarrah is learning so much. :)

My banker told me yesterday that his son thought the bad guy in Star Wars was called "Dark Invader." This is one of the best parts of parenting.
