OK- I really, really, really (get the idea?) did not want to go to this event tonight at Ben's school. Not because I thought it would not be good- I KNEW it would be great. It was because Gabe was in the backyard with 2 neighbor boys, constructing some contraption and having a ball. Ben was engrossed in Legos and a book. The weather was beautiful-sun shinning- warm. BUT--- we went. We went because Ben worked so hard on all of these art pieces. We went because so many people took so much of THEIR time to put this all together. We went because I want Ben to LOVE art. It was worth it. There will be many nice days ahead. But never again will I walk the halls with my 2nd grader looking at his treasured art!! My favorite, by far was "BENzilla" That cat cracks me up and it has Ben's personality all over it! Next year I will have a kindergartner and a 3rd grader's art to look at!! YIKES!!!!

Ahhh...those were the days. The dreaded school expositions when you "had" to go but were so happy you did. Cool. Ben should continue to explore his creative side!
