Jacob's world

This year in the fourth grade, every student is given a time to "unpack their personality" for the rest of the class. On Thursday, Jacob had a turn at it. He had been going through the house finding unique items that describe himself. Here he is opening up his large suitcase to prepare to share with his class.



One of the many items that he enjoys collecting are sports cards like baseball and basketball. Sarah was there as well. Jacob's teacher, Mrs. Capp offered to hold her while I took some pictures. Sarah was just waiting for her turn to share about some of her favorite items- baby toys!





When Jacob finshed showing his favorite items, he shared a favorite snack of his- super dickman's- a yummy German snack with a marshmellow center. In German, the work "dick" means fat.
As I was going through the school, I spied Anna with her class lined up for the end of the day. As soon as Anna saw me with the camera her little halo popped up above her head. Here she is standing by her teacher Miss Sommers reciting a bible verse.

    Hey, I know someone else who likes Dickmans almost as much as Jacob.
    Hmmm, I wonder who that might be--any guesses from the peanut gallery out there. Probably only Jacob's mom & dad would know the answer. Anna, I can see that cute little halo even now. Way to go on memorizing/reciting your Bible verses. And of course, Baby Sarah, you probably cause a big distraction anywhere you go in the community--you are such a precious cutie. We love all 3 of you so very much. Have a fun Halloween and enjoy that special candy and popcorn from America. XO G & G B.
