laugh or cry?

 
 
The teacher in me is thrilled.  "Look at that penmenship!  He's showing an enthusiasm for writing I've never seen before!  He's trying to spell words he doesn't know yet (his middle name)!"
 
The mother in me is horrified.  "That's our living room couch!!!!"
 
When I talked to him, the teacher voice won the attitude, the mom voice won the message.
 
I have also learned that rubbing alcohol is a great ink remover.

Wow! So sorry about your couch. He needs to learn how to write his siblings names :)

Actually, I first suspected his sister, until I saw his trademark dot on the i. I am an older sibling and confess I wrote Aaron's name on something once. :)

Josiah did confess. Said it was an accident.

I just realized that my last statement could be totally misunderstood. Rubbing alcohol!! Fixing that now.

I knew you did! It just struck me different when I read it again. :)
