Every year the first graders read a story entitled When I Am Old With You. The young boy in the story is telling his Grandaddy all the things they will do when they're old together; go fishing, ride a tractor, play cards, visit the ocean. It's a heart warmer. To get the kids more involved with the story, at the end of the week we celebrate Grandparents' Day. Students invite their grandparents to come to our school, listen to them read the story, and share a cookie. During the week, the students work on a card to give their grandparent while they are together. Apparently this student was the only one who realized that "being old with" his grandpa was somewhat of an unlikely sentiment. I'm hoping the grandpa who received the card below is not only healthy in body and mind, but has a healthy sense of humor as well.
