Life Lesson# 45893 = Always check your child's homework before it gets to
school!
When asked to draw a picture of what they wanted to be when they grew up,
second-grader "Sarah" turned in the lovely drawing shown below. Needless
to say, the teacher was a bit surprised -- Mrs. Smith had always seemed
like such a conservative woman. So she sent a note home to the girl's
mother asking for clarification as to the picture's meaning.
(Here's the reply the teacher received the following day)
Dear Mrs. Jones,
I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic
dancer.
I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week
before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we
had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people
were fighting over who would get it. Her picture doesn't show me
dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow
shovel we had at Home Depot.
From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before
she turns it in.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Smith
