(Click on the Calvin and Hobbes to enlarge)
My boys learned to read by struggling their way through Calvin and Hobbes. It has great vocabulary and always cracked them up. Since they were his age they didn't always get the joke but enjoyed it none the less. One strip stuck with my peanut butter loving son - the one in which Calvin only eats from one side of the jar so there is a perfect top on half the peanut butter when the other side is down to the bottom.
So in the middle of our stress & transition the boys decided to take control of their lives by sculpting the peanut butter jar. A week of hard labor ensued and we have the perfect Calvin peanut butter jar.
Yeah, we either need a medal of some kind of we need to get a life! Either way we deserve some praise!
