Walker's Facts About Texas

Walker's kindergarten class recently
spent a week studying Texas.

I asked him on the way home from school one
day who the father of Texas was.
He said, "Stephen F. Honest"
(close...it's Stephen F. 'Austin').

Then I asked him what the capital of Texas is?
His answer:
Boston (close...it's Austin).

*Note to self*
Check with school nurse as to when hearing
tests will be conducted.

He did know the state flower of Texas:
The Bluebonnet.
That made me think of these pictures...
During the same week, the class
had to make LONGHORNS.
As most of you know, Troy went to Texas A&M.
He and Walker are not fans of the
Texas Longhorns.
Walker was NOT happy about this project
and would not take a picture with it
(or allow jokes about it!).
Guess that's what happens when you
become an Aggie this early...

Lovin it! Lovin that spirited little fella. So, that's what blue bonnets are.......those pictures of Walker as a baby are priceless. Walker already has it all figured out. You do what the teacher wants you to do, even if it's making a crazy longhorn. If it will earn points or get a good grade "A" he's onboard! Keep it up Walker!! Boston, TX does sound better than Boston, Mass anyways.
