Let me just start off by saying that I know the quality of this picture is horrible. Now that we have that out of the way…why is Liam wearing a nametag that says “Ray”? For April Fools’ Day his teacher let them pick another name for the day. He chose Ray. I have no idea why, but I thought it was a cute thing for the teacher to let them do.

I went up to kindergarten today to help with their Art Literacy program. It is a program the school has in addition to the regular art curriculum. About every six weeks or so the whole school learns about a new artist. This time around it was Paul Klee. The students first learn about the artist and their life, look at examples of their work, talk about what they see, how it makes them feel, etc. Then they concentrate on one of those pieces and make a piece of art in its likeness.
Liam took this picture. It all started when I showed the boys this video on my friend Dana’s blog. The boys were laughing so hard they could barely breathe. Then for the next half hour they were obsessed with looking up funny cat videos on YouTube. (We did find a couple of funny ones.) So anyways, when Liam went to go take a shower that night he saw Butch drinking from the toilet, he thought it was super hilarious in light of the videos we had watched and he had to snap a picture.
I got sucked into this book somewhere in the middle of the second chapter and could not put it down. Don’t start reading this book unless you have some time on your hands because your children may not get fed and the laundry won’t get done until you are done reading this book. 🙂
