When asked to draw a picture of what they wanted to be when they grew up, second-grader "Sarah" turned in the lovely drawing shown below. Needless to say, the teacher was a bit surprised -- Mrs. Smith had always seemed like such a conservative woman. So she sent a note home to the girl's mother asking for clarification as to the picture's meaning. Read mom's reply below the picture.
Here's the reply the teacher received the following day:
Here's the reply the teacher received the following day:
Dear Mrs. Jones,
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 every single shovel 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 Home Depot. From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Smith

That's so funny! It totally makes sense with Mom's explanation! Cute.
:)
Hope your readers find it as funny as I did!
Ha-ha. I would have let the teacher imagine what she wanted, explaining nothing. I knew it was a snow shovel at first glance.
That is so funny! Oh my goodness! I am glad Nathan directed me to your blog. Thanks for the laugh!
I am busting up laughing! How embarrasing for that mom!
