Everyday when the kids get home from school, I pull all their papers out of their backpacks. The other day, I found the beginnings of some writing that Nick had done. I thought it was very well written, especially for an 8-year-old, so I decided to post it here:
'How Hard Life Was: Collection 1: Book 1/10'
Chapter 1/10: 10,000 B.C.
Here in the unknown abyss, I lie in my only shelter, a cave, captured. I was trying to find lizard eggs but when I found the 5th egg, I got captured. I tried to get my knife but it was too late. So I am about to get burned in this cave when my thoughts were disrupted by the social studies teacher. I looked at the board and knew the answer immediately . . .
Chapter 2/10: "Classical" Time Machine
11:59:10 a.m. It's almost time to go in, I told myself. I made a bet with someone that I wouldn't sweat. I felt a drop of sweat forming.
Not too bad! I'll post more if he writes the rest, but for now I just wanted to show off my boy!

Not too bad? That is incredible! He has a sweet imagination and a great descriptive way to express what he is wanting to say. So did you know he could write like this or is this a surprise to you? He's going to make bank someday...watch out Grisham!
That is amazing! Way to go Nick!
Wow! Nick is awesome! Mike and I were amazed, encourage him to keep up with that!
Whoa! New York Times best seller here he comes!
