Something you never want to hear your son say: I want to be a robber when I grow up. Worse - he put it in writing in his "All About Me" book to remember for all time who he was and what he was interested in at the beginning of second grade.

Wil wrote this essay at school. It's for the "Greatest Grandparents of South Carolina" essay contest.


Here's the translation:

My GranPaul is the best. He played the Princess Game with me and Elizabeth. He put on a crown. We thought that was funny, then... I put on one. He used to drive a school bus. I got to ride the school bus. Now he drives a tour bus. We are good friends. Sometimes he calls me "Buddy." I like that. He is the greatest. Sometimes my family drives to the farm. I get to play in the sand box. The end.
