Easter Crafts...Merritt Style!
Since I'm still mostly dead, I didn't expect to blog today...that is until I saw Merritt's latest first grade craft project. It is most excellent. Let me set up the scene. I'm in the car, waiting for Merritt to walk out of school when I spy one of his classmates walking down the sidewalk. The boy (who is totally Braden Dewey's long lost twin) was holding an adorable Easter Bunny treat bag - a bunny face on a white paper lunch bag. The bunny's ears were pink and perky, th

I'll bet he makes his teacher's day--he's such a crack up!
He is so funny and has such a great imagination! I love his freaked out bunny!
That's awesome - boys are the best.
WOW! That so-called 'bunny' looks like a meat-eater to me! I think he can hold his own against Merritt's dinosaurs. What an independent thinker you have brought into the world. Grandma in France :)
That is the best bunny I have ever seen. It says Merritt all over it.
Jo, your retelling left me crying and laughing so hard my husband asked if I would be alright?!! Way to go Merritt! You keep up the amazing artwork. I love it!!
If Merritt brought home a cute little bunny you would think that something was wrong with him. It is great that he is so creative! I love it!
