Dear Grant…

Last week I noticed on a VERY dear friends facebook status, that her son, Grant had been made fun of in school. This was because he likes to read. When I told my son Cobe (who is also Grant’s friend) about this, he was appalled! In fact, he hasn’t stopped asking me about it since. Tonight he wrote a letter to him and I wanted everyone to see (it’s on handwriting paper, because we are also working on that aspect as well-lots of work still to be done ):

He asked my permission to use the word “Jerks”, because that is one we aren’t allowed to use here! In this situation I thought it was fitting.

Grant, we so love you! We think you are adorable and we cannot wait to see what you end up as. You should NEVER worry about what others think of you, because you are very cool. One day the fact that you read is going to actually make you lots of money. Most importantly your heart for others is sweet and loving. As long as you keep those things in line God is going to do GREAT things for you. If anything the Grandstaff’s think you are the greatest thing since sliced bread. SO THERE,  kids in Grant’s grade, as my mom used to say “Go suck an egg!” (Okay don’t use that one, because it was not cool then and it will probably never be)!
