Fish bag

The coveted fish bag came home from school with Ben on Friday and we have waited ALL WEEKEND to bring it back with an item for show and tell. It has been a very long weekend. The rule is that only one item can be in the bag. No weapons and no live animals. Those are good rules.

Ben decided early in the weekend that he would take a new "morphing" toy but by Sunday night we knew it wouldn't work because it kept coming apart which really made it more like six toys. We all agreed the toy needed to find a place on the book shelf and Ben would pick another item for the fish bag.

He went to bed unsure of what he would take the next morning. About 30 minutes after bedtime he came out of his room with the fish bag. He told us that he was so excited to go to school in the morning. He was taking Rudolph in the fish bag. This was an extra special trip for Rudolph. He usually only goes to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays when Ben stays for rest time.

Ben woke up bright and early Monday morning, ready to take the fish bag to school.

Eli took Larry the Cucumber for a repeat show and tell trip today. How sweet is a boy's love for his favorite little friend!
