Tommy's teacher made a "book" for the end of the year with the whole class. They each illustrated a page. It was all about things their class did throughout the year, you know, "the children read books," "the children wrote stories," "the children went on field trips," yada, yada, yada. But Tommy's page was special. His teacher was reading it to all of the kids and parents at a recent class gathering and she stopped and looked up at us just before she read his page.
He drew himself hitting his friend Antonio, which is funny because that is something he has never done. But, alas, it is true that he qualifies in the "some children" part. As a matter of fact I think he might have been the leader of the someones.
His buddy Antonio drew did the next page...
This was about going to the "Responsibility Center." It's a place to go and review the choices you are making and decide on a plan for making a better choice next time. As you can see, Tommy figures prominently in this picture as well.
The good news is that Tommy's teacher loves him regardless. She says she is going to miss him and she is confident he is going to be a millionaire in the future. I think that is because of the combination of charm and risk taking that is so evident in him each day. But then again, she just announced her retirement and we can't be sure that all that charm and risk taking weren't a factor in that decision!
