Felt inclined to post this, 'cause my boy made me proud as hell today!
This summer, a local movie theater gives kids a free movie pass every Wednesday for writing a book report (more like a paragraph, but you get the point).
My son has written a book report just about every week, so my wife, son and daughter see a movie just about every Wednesday and only have to pay for my wife's admission. The fact that he has taken the initiative to write the reports made me proud, but today, it paid off in spades!
I did not know this, but every week, during the movie, the theater manager reads the reports and picks one for a prize based on the quality of the report. Well, today, my son's was picked!
Actually got himself a cool little grab bag!
Season One of Spongebob Squarepants on DVD
Spongebob Squarepants Halloween movie
Cool Nick Jr tumbler
Two free tickets to a movie
I tell ya, he was so proud of himself and so was his Old Man! He came running out of the house when I got home, and usually that means he messed up during the day and wants to try and "explain" it to me before his Mom tells me what happened, but today it was ear-to-ear grins!
