I remember liking school; but I don&#8217;t recall it being half this much fun.  Today Adam&#8217;s school is having Pilgrim and Indian day.  The middle grades are studying about Indians right now and the teachers came up with the brilliant idea to involve everyone.  <\/p>\n<p>The students came home with a note saying they can dress up as either a Pilgrim or Indian and bring their lunch in something correct for the period.  I hear they are going to eat lunch in the woods and if I don&#8217;t miss my guess, there will be a ton of other fun happenings.  <\/p>\n<p>Adam knew immediately he wanted to be an Indian.  Yesterday he told me all the boys in his class are going to be Indians and all the girls are going to be Pilgrims. Nothing like variety. <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s.xanga.com\/images\/laughing.gif\" width=\"15\" border=\"0\" \/>  The Pilgrim costume would have been super easy to do &#8230;. can&#8217;t you just see him in white trouser socks and black dress pants hemmed to come just below the knee?  But the Indian fits him so much more.  He&#8217;s not moderate enough to make an accurate Pilgrim. <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s.xanga.com\/images\/winky.gif\" width=\"15\" border=\"0\" \/>  But the Indian war whoop &#8230; well, no need to practice that.  Loud noises are his forte.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/x0b.xanga.com\/948f4b6047431272914040\/b217640449.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/x0b.xanga.com\/948f4b6047431272914040\/m217640449.jpg\" style=\" border-width: 0px;\" height=\"580\" alt=\"Oct 10_0729\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>I was so tickled to find this costume on clearance at One Step Ahead; but didn&#8217;t want to spend another $13 on the moccasins so we picked up a little fabric and used the leftover trim from when I made curtains for the office.  The first one was a disaster.  The second one fit, but the fabric was so slippery he wiped out wearing only one shoe.  Tears on the hallway floor and more brainstorming.  Finally I cut the sole out and hot glued the top of the moccasin to the sole of his canvas play shoes that are nearly too small anyway.  Ta Da!  A moccasin he can run in.  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/xdf.xanga.com\/025f6bf7c4533272914057\/b217640465.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/xdf.xanga.com\/025f6bf7c4533272914057\/m217640465.jpg\" style=\" border-width: 0px;\" height=\"580\" alt=\"Oct 10_0731\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>He traded some furs for a tin bucket from the white man. And I just now realized we forgot to paint his face in our excitement!  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/x95.xanga.com\/2c0f64f7d4633272914064\/b217640469.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/x95.xanga.com\/2c0f64f7d4633272914064\/m217640469.jpg\" style=\" border-width: 0px;\" height=\"580\" alt=\"Oct 10_0732\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>See why I want to go to school again?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think I want to go to school again.
