Stephen and Buddy really are planning to go ice fishing tomorrow with some guys from church. This will be Buddy's first fishing experience EVER, and he is so excited... I'm packing a special picnic lunch for them (complete with hot dogs they can grill outside). Their plan inspired Sis to write a "Tall Tale," one of her English assignments this week. She was encouraged to use exaggeration words, to hook her reader with her introduction, and to leave her reader asking a question at the end. I thought she did a great job.
Poor Baby boy keeps asking if he can go ice fishing too. He is in complete denial that this won't be possible and keeps talking confidently about their plans. Any mention that he is too small this year brings on a torrent of protests and tears. We'll have to think of a fun alternative plan at home. Maybe I'll even bring out the evil finger paints?!
