I finally sat down and cleaned out a bunch of bags that had congregated in our downstairs closet. Among those bags, were Scout and Navy’s backpacks from last year. It was amazing what I found in those. One thing was a school yearbook that I didn’t pay for. I never pay for their elementary yearbooks (mostly because there is usually one school picture of them, and nothing else). But somehow, my kids always end up with a “leftover”.
As I thumbed through the yearbook, I saw Scout’s class page. His picture was on the left, and on the right side, each kid had drawn a self portrait. I always love to see Scout’s artwork against his classmates. His usually looks like a child three grades down drew his…so I looked and looked.
And then I found it…..the “+ Scout Denison” at the very bottom of the page.
I FaceTimed Micah, and we cracked up that he was “that kid” who didn’t make the cut.
Or maybe, he knows his artistic skills are three grades below, and opted out.
Or maybe (more than likely), he was absent with removed tonsils.
