Almost.....

Every Wednesday Chris has to "share" in class. It's the modern day show and tell. You bring in a toy or special object, share 3 sentences about your item, and then pick one classmate to ask a question.

When we visited the Newseum in Washington, DC., my broadcast-savvy husband encouraged Chris to purchase a foam microphone as a souvenir thinking it would make a great item to share with his class. Well, for the last 2 months, that poor microphone was never selected to be the "special" object for share. Chris would choose his other beloved stuffed animals or knick knacks...always pushing the microphone off for another week. Well.. we are down to the wire. Tomorrow is his last share. Realizing that, yesterday he told me that he was going to bring in the microphone. At long last! I knew his father would be happy, but I didn't want to say anything and make it a surprise. Well... that whole theory got shot when Chris arrived home from school today and asked me, "Mom... do you think that Scooby Doo could pretend to talk into the microphone during share tomorrow?" "No.. .you can only bring in one object...either Scooby or the microphone."... let's just say that maybe Steve can bring the microphone in to work one day to "share" because it's not going to see the light of day in the kindergarten class.
