Sneaking In

This morning Owen had no intention of going to school.  He stayed up in his room and hid under his covers.  It took a lot of coaxing to get him downstairs and ready for school.

When I made a snack to send with Owen I slipped in a little note.

  I love that Owen can read it - that I can sneak into his mind sometime in the middle of his school-day.

It does feel a little wrong somehow, like cheating or something.  But I didn’t let that stop me…

When Owen got home from school and I asked if he found the note.  He said, “I read it lots of times – over and over.  I even read it to Charlotte.”  He had such a big smile.

I got a big smile too.  I think I am going to sneak into his classroom more often.
