Garyn's Show-n-Tell



Every Thursday Garyn gets to bring a Show-n-Tell to school and each Thursday has a different theme. It usually is a color, favorite item, holiday related, etc. Last Thursday in preparation of Easter, the Show-n-Tell was to bring in a lamb or something white and soft.
Well, it just so happens that Garyn and Gianna each have their own baby lamb at their Great Grandpaw's farm. So when I told Garyn about the Show-n-Tell, he quickly asked if he could bring his own lamb to school. After talking about it with Ryan, we asked the teachers and they couldn't have been more excited. So on the morning of the Show-n-Tell, Ryan went and picked the lamb up from the farm, placed it in a dog crate and drove it to school. We met Ryan outside and Garyn got to show all of his school friends his baby lamb. For some kids, it was the first time they had ever seen a lamb, especially up close and so touchable. They all decided to name the lamb Rainbow. As we were leaving with the lamb, Garyn so innocently asked if he could place the lamb under his chair (under the chair is where they place their show-n-tell.) It was so sweet and so fun. Garyn was extremely proud of his animal....(and so was Gianna.)
The pictures are priceless and it will be something Garyn will remember forever. Our children are so lucky to have such awesome Great Grandparents....Grandpaw always says..."every child should have an animal." And on this Thursday, all of the children did....
