Sam I Am

Jacob celebrated Dr. Seuss's birthday all week at school.  On Friday, they got to go dressed up as their favorite Dr. Seuss character.  He chose Sam I Am from I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham.  While we were figuring out what he should wear, he instructed me that I needed to go to the store and buy him some yellow pants or make some for him.  I told him we were going to be creative and use what we already had around the house.  I talked him into wearing these light colored pants.  His yellow shirt is his preschool shirt with a big blue star on it.  He told me he couldn't wear it because of the star.  I came up with the idea to have him wear a sign to cover the star.  Luckily he was very easy to please as I waited until the night before to throw this together.  That is how I roll.  If I have time to waste, I'll waste it.  My creative juices flow much better at the last hour for any project.
Here is his plate of green eggs and ham.  He told me this was perfect!  I am so grateful he is young and easy to please!!  Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!  Thanks for all of your fun stories and creativity!
