The Genius and the Giant

Joy has a poetry project due this week.  She was assigned the poem "Me and My Giant" by Shel Silversten . . .


. . . and she decided to paint a giant leg and foot as a prop for her presentation this week.  She eventually decided to cut the paper in half  when she realized that it would take all night to paint the whole thing, and that she couldn't reach twelve feet high to pin the top to the wall anyway.


In other Joy news, today was Inside Out Day at school, and kids were encouraged to wear signs showing how they feel.  Joy made a sign saying she feels like a genius, especially since a lot of kids in class call her that.


When she got home, she added a Post-it Note with a complex equation to demonstrate her prodigious mental faculties.
