When I grow up...

Here is a gentle reminder for all parents to always check your child's homework before they hand it in.

A little girl submitted this picture for a class project that required the children to draw what their parents do for a living…


And here is the mother's response when the teacher questioned the parent about the picture…

Dear Mrs. Brooks,

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 of every single shovel that 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 the store. From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.

Sincerely,
Auretta Jones
