Who needs Europe?

Share
Yesterday Landon was working on a history assignment and had to make a world map.  He was suppose to burn the edges of the map to make it look old.  Well.....
I TRIED not to laugh but....ended up laughing so hard I almost peed my pants.
BEST part was his response:
"Well, only half of Europe is gone and some of the Atlantic Ocean, my teacher will never notice"  
He turned it in just like this.  What teacher recommends a 10 year old burn something?

Good times.

I'm on my way out the door for a 7 miler.  Legs are STILL killing from the lunges on Monday, CURSE YOU LUNGES CURSE YOU!

Happy Running!

  5. Wait, that's not how the world actually looks? I always just figured that Europe was a big gap with a cute kid poking through :p

  6. So he burned "some" edges of Europe and the Atlantic.
    Lunges are evil, pure evil.

  7. I just showed my 10 year old this post and comments and this is what he said:

    "Wow, people have weird responses. If I had a blog I wouldn't say anything like that."

    HA! Makes me think of Chris K's post. "Come on Landon tell us, tell us what the cool kids are saying!"

  8. Priceless. I love how he still has the lighter in his hand.

  9. Keep that photo. Your kid will laugh at it when he get older. I am not sure why the teacher would recommend a kid to burn anything also.
