My fourth grade son, Ben brought home a positive page thing from school. It appears as if kids took turns saying positive things about each other and writing them down. Think of an uber supportive yearbook signature page.

Let’s see what Ben’s colleagues had to say.

Lots of “You are smart” or “funny” comments. There’s even a smattering of “good at sports” type comments.

Wait! What does the one up by his photo say?

“You are ugly.” Who signed that? Wait, it was signed by… Ben. My boy wrote “ugly” about himself. Now, I would be worried, if I didn’t know that Ben was joking.

As a result, I think the description by his photo should be amended to read, “Smart-ass.”
