I checked his backpack and sure enough 2 notes! Why doesn't he give them to me when he gets home from school? I DON'T KNOW, but wish I did.
His school sent home a note stating the activities they are doing for Earth Day...
1. Walk to school. Meet at the CNS building and walk to school with faculty.
2. Turn lights off from 12:30 to 2:30.
3. Extra Recess time from 2:00 to 2:15.
4. Recycle Paper, we will be using little to no paper today and our notes are all on recycled paper.
5. Please do what you can at home, turn off lights, turn of game boxes and computers for 1 hour.
Okay great, they are trying to do some good for Mother Earth!
So I tried to do my lil' part, I left all of the lights off in the house this morning and Chucky turned them all back on!
This is our conversation about the note from school...
Mom, I HAVE to walk to school!
No, Chucky you don't "have" to walk to school. Do you think that it is good for our environment for all of us to jump in our cars and drive our kids down so you can walk a block to school? I think it would be worse for our environment then you just riding the bus.
I am going to be the only one in my class that isn't walking to school, THANKS MOM!!
I guarantee you that you won't be the only one not walking to school.
YES, YES I will and I will never forgive you!!
Okay, Chucky I think your being a little over dramatic about walking a block to school.
So needless to say I had my fingers crossed that the kid that's in Chucky's class would ride the bus this morning- lucky for me he did!!
Yeah, I said that his school was doing some good!
The Earth Day note was on recycled paper, but the other note was not!
Chucky's bus ended up dropping them off a block from the school so all of the kids could walk to school.
Chucky did more than eat and shower in the dark, walk a block to school and bring home 1 note on recycled paper, he planted a cherry tree!!
Didn't it turn our great!!
