Fail
So I saw this "Mommy and Me" journal on pinterest awhile back. It's basically just a notebook and you can write notes back and forth to each other, give compliments, etc. I go out and buy this fancy schmancy journal and tell Aiden my idea. He looks at me dead serious and was like, "So it's basically like texting, just on paper?" Then he laughed at me, and told me I need to step away from pinterest.

I LOVE that idea!! That is totally somthing Chase would do. We call them random notes of kindness.
He has left me cute little notes in random places for years. One time he drew me a skeleton (it was Halloween and he was learning to draw them in 3rd grade art class) and wrote I love you mom on a peice of toilet paper and shoved it inside the empty toilet paper roll so it would fall out when I changed the roll. I found it later that day after he left to spend the weekend with his dad.
I also randomly write little notes to put in his lunch box and one time I found one he wrote back when he packed lunch for me.
He gets this from my step-dad. He does cutsey stuff like that for my mom all the time. Cards, writes I love you on the mirror of the bathroom so she sees it in the morning after her shower, leaves her favorite snacks on the seat of her car in the morning. It used to make me gag, but now that Im older I totally appricate him teaching my son his charming ways.
Im totally doing the book thing with Chase.
I'm sure he will. I think the new generations need a push for writing with paper and pencils!
WTF? Are you serious? Wow, that is just crazy!
I know Chase got pissy last night because he needed a biography for a project and I wouldnt let him use a book on CD. Damn kid, be happy I considered letting you use a kindle. But eff all that noise too. We are going to the library and checking out an old fashioned dusty ass book on JFK. Punk.
WHAT?!?!
I'm sorry. For some reason I can't quote anyone but check out this article on no cursive...

The fact that a 19 year old couldn't read a document because its in cursive blows my mind. I hate cursive and never use it, but that's crazy to think our children won't be able to read it or write it!
