Mother's Day by Joel

At the end of the school day today, Joel arrived in my classroom with a decorated flowerpot containing seedlings he had started in class. He also presented me with a Mother's Day "essay" (fill-in). It read (Joel's words in blue):

My mother is the most special mom in the whole world! She's as pretty as candy. She weighs 50 pounds and she is 20 feet tall. Her favorite food is mustroos (mushrooms). In the good ole days when my mom was little, she used to watch TV. I know my mom is sad when she lays down and I know my mom is happy when she remembers her list. (my personal favorite!) I think she looks funny when she laughs but I know when she is really angry when she breaks something. (???!!!) I wouldn't trade my mother for a toy train because I love her very much!

Too funny! I foresee a very busy weekend so...
Happy Mother's Day to all those moms out there!
