Joe's hat...part 1


I have a card system for behavior...Green means an excellent day...yellow is a warning...blue is kind of like purgatory and pink...well, let's not even go there!

So my trust sidekick, Maria, got an idea for an incentive and it was an interesting one.  Her husband Joe (a firefighter) got a new hat...the reason being his old one was beat up, charred, dented and pretty smelly between smoke and sweat...pretty much all around disgusting.  However...VERY appealing to a 6 or 7 year old.  All they had to do was stay on green for the day (easier said than done).  Well...that old fire hat was a whopping success...whatever!


Elijah...green is a snap for him anyway!


Andrew...thought the cross was a good addition.

Abby...looking a little impish!

Ethan...oh man, student of the day AND a fireman's hat...does not get any better than that.

Gage...has a real fascination with all things fireman-ish!

Anna...can you tell old toothless here is a first grader?  Loved the hat!

Kate...not all too sure about the whole thing...just happy to be on green...as usual.

...and Ava...it's her Dad's fire hat so how proud is she?

Stay tuned for Joe's hat...part 2.  I even donned the smelly old thing.
