So this surfaced in the automobile recently:
And I thought, Cool, one of the boys made a throwing star.
Then I noticed it had six points, and I thought Maybe it’s a Jewish throwing star.
Then I noticed it was made of Christmas cardstock and bears the initials of one of the boys, which might indicate it was a Christmas-themed throwing star.
That it might, in fact, be a wreath never entered my mind.
Because wreaths are not as cool as throwing stars.
And I’m sure no boys of mine would use that as decoration.
And as to it surfacing now, three months after Christmas, well, let’s just say that my children are not timely with the contents of their backpacks. They have delivered Christmas cards for their teachers in the following May on occasion. (The occasion being Christmas. Every year.)
