V.I.P.


Every Friday Austin's class has a V.I.P for 1 week. Austin is it for this week. Last week he made a poster of all his favorite things and he got to take it to school to show his class. He also got to bring anything else he wanted so the kids can get to know him better. He chose to bring in his favorite teddy bear for everyone to see, his favorite dinosaur book he got from his birthday and his sisters. Greta and Alina were very excited to go to school with Austin and he was very proud to have them there with him.
His poster has his own drawings (except for the picture of the dinosaur shark that he got out of his national geographic magazine). His favorite animals are the lion and tiger. His favorite foods are pizza, watermelon and butterfingers. He also made a family tree of us. His favorite superhero is Superman. He has a Yu-Gi-Oh card for his favorite card game and his favorite colors are red and blue.


After the VIP explains their poster all the kids get to ask 1 question to them. Every single kid in that class was amazed at his drawings and all of them asked him "how did you draw that lion?" "How did you draw that tiger?!" Austin's answer was..."ahhh it was easy." He is very good at drawing for his age. He decided about a month ago that he wants to be an artist when he grows up, he's on his way!

What a good idea! VIP for the week! Good teacher! Austin looks so studly in that picture too. You could see in his face how important he felt. That is so good for kids! He does draw well! Landon has always loved it too. It's so good for them to be creative. Love the poster too! Good work Holly! :0)

Good work Holly? What about me?! I mean, I realize she carried him for 9 months, gave birth, nursed him, woke up in the middle of the night, bathed him, cleaned most of his diapers (except for that really nasty tar-poo one in the hospital), and taught him everything he knows.

But what about ME?!

Hey Holl! Tell AUst I'm so proud of him. He looks very handsome and grown up in that pic. That is so cool he took the girls to class with him. I bet they loved it. Tell the kids I'll see them Saturday! I can't wait!
