Brig is in the 2nd grade. The 2nd grade discipline system at his school is based on each student starting the day with a certain number of stars, which get taken away during the day for various infractions. At the end of the day the teacher writes the number of stars each student ended up with on their folders. They bring them home, the parent signs to indicate they are aware of the student's behavior, and the folders go back to the teacher the next day. If a parent forgets to sign the folder, the kid automatically loses a star.
Brig has never lost a star. I'm pretty sure it would be catastrophic for him. While I have reassured him many times that I will still love him and be proud of him if he does, he doesn't feel like he can risk it.
This morning Brig brought me his folder to sign and informed me that I had forgotten to sign the day before. He should have lost a star, "but it's okay," he said. "I just told Mrs. M you were grouchy that day and she said 'No biggie'."
His perfect star record remains untarnished...

That is priceless!!! I love it.
1. What a good boy!
2. He will make a good husband. Just don't rock the boat when she is grouchy.

I LOVE IT! That's awesome! I wish our kids were so concerned however! We're trying to find new consequences that will actually hurt them enough to make them want to follow the directions!
I love your kids and I have never even met them!! Man they are hilarious.
I love your kids, and you, and I HAVE met them! Miss you all. Such a great little PR person you have in Brigham. I think he will make a great president...
That is hilarious! Gotta love the honesty of kids!
