At Back to School night the Fifth grade teachers had a "donation tree" displayed with leaves that were labeled with different things needed for the fifth grade classes. The idea was that you pick a leaf (or two...or TWENTY...AHEM) off and return the needed items to school with your 5th grader(s).That night we had Matt & Zach each pick three leaves off. Done.
Well, the first day of school {my sweet} Matt came home and announced that there were still leaves on the donation tree so he picked THE REST of them off and brought them home...

I'm glad I have a thoughtful boy!

Such cute boys!! I want to make a wish tree for me too...
What a conscientious boy! Thoughtful, kind, giving...sounds like he has a big heart! You're a lucky mom! (broke, but lucky!)
He's so generous, with your cash. He's sweet and adorable. Love the long hair.
Gotta love it when they are thoughtful... besides, didn't you know that money grows on trees?
Glad to hear he's so giving! Poor you!!!
are you going to blog about "the bathroom indcident?"
I am dying for you to!
At least he didn't take a whole bunch off and then forget to give them to you... that would be what Jax would do.
What a cute boy! I bet his teacher loves him.
Don't you just love your "free" public education?
what a great story - I am sure it was all the best (expensive) stuff left! are school isn't aloud to ask us for anything - guess I should be grateful! (I like the long hair too!)
Uhhhhh...if you re-attach leaves to a tree will it live?
He is a thoughtful boy, indeed. That is the lovely part :)
That is EXACTLY how Mack was. I feel your pain. That is too sweet though. I love that boy. Soooo, tell us about the bathroom incident, pleeeeeeze.
I think I've been asked for $100 of donations since the first day of school. Let me know when you get all of those!
you have instilled thoughtfulness in your boys since they were so small! i would love to know your secret!!!
