Today was a Thanksgiving feast with Jackson and his class. We got to the school, checked in, and stood in the hallway waiting to see Jackson's teacher round the corner with 18 five year olds in tow. When they finally came around you could see feathers and painted shirts and noodle necklaces. They were all dressed as Indians and each one had their own Indian name painted on the front of their shirt. We came to find out they each got to choose their own name.
Jackson was "Fast Horse".
And look who we ran into in the hallway on the way out.
I'd also like to share this little turkey story that Jackson wrote last night.
I've been having him write stories by himself lately and he's getting pretty good at it. He sounds out and spells the words by himself.
He wrote the story first then decided he wanted to draw a turkey to go with it. The drawing ended up covering up the words so he rewrote it on the back.
Poor turkeys!
But I sure am looking forward to eating some in just a couple weeks. :-)

"Fast Horse" is adorable and I love his turkey story. It made me really see the turkey's point of view.
Captain Turk cracks us up. We love the parrot and the mustache! Its so fun seeing all the the creative and exciting new things Jackson is getting to experience at school. Thanks for sharing!
