*********************************
If I had a million dollars to buy gifts for my family, here's what I would do....
"First, I would run home and show my mom the million dollar bill.
I would show her the bill because if I surprised her
she would be mad that I didn't show her the million doller bill.
Next, I would buy a mansion for my family.
It would have six bed rooms.
Each bedroom would have a flatscreen TV and I would also have a butler.
Then I would buy an R.V.
We could get somewhere faster because someone could get up early
and bring us somewhere we need to go.
Last, I would buy presents for my family.
We could have more things to play with.
I would get all of this stuff so we cuold mostly just lay around."

I asked him "Don't you want to give some of this money to help people?". He simply shook his head and said "Nahh". Granted the paper was titled If I had a million dollars to buy presents for my family and he is pretty meticulous when it comes to following directions to the letter but I'm just wondering if I should be concerned? Don't get me wrong I would love the RV, mansion, and flatscreen T.V.'s.and he's right, I would be mad if he didn't tell me about the million dollars. Although I may have to trade the butler in for a housekeeper. :)

He had another paper simply titled: My Family. It was sweet but the interesting part was where he had to pick a word for each letter of F A M I L Y that described us. Here's what he came up with:
My family is special to me because they always help me, make me happy, and they give me advice when I need help....
F - Funny (I'm glad he finds us amusing)
A - Athletic (I assume he's talking about Mom here :))
M - Muscular (Wasn't sure who he was referring to but when I asked him he pointed to Mark ..that's probably a good thing :))
I - Intrepid ( What in the world does that mean? I had to look it up. Turns out it means fearless, brave, valiant - I'll take that!)
L - Loving (definitely important)
Y - Youthful (gotta love that one!)

What a funny and sweet little boy we have!
Nice he thinks of you all as "youthful". I wonder how long that will last...
ReplyDeleteAt least he doesn't want to blow the money on video games! That is nice of him to use it on his family!
