From my son's First Grade Homework:
1. Which words go together?
Birthday
Cake
Monkeys
Candles
2. Which could really happen?
A rabbit goes bowling with a tulip.
A rabbit hops behind a bush.
And the dilemma of the writerly mom: do I encourage him to conform so he doesn't get his homework "wrong"? Or do we write that story about the monkeys exploding out of the Birthday Cake, bounding about the room with candles grasped in their tails?
Take that Minneapolis School System!

My question is: Does the Monkey go Bowling WITH a Tulip, using the tulip instead of a bowling ball (Epic fail IMHO)? Or does the Moneky and a Tulip decide to go bowling together? How can MPS and this "teacher" expect any kind of answer at all? They failed to specify!
Yes!!!
