Men Don't Play with Dolls
Men Don't Play with Dolls on PhotoPeach --- Or do they?
When you choose an object that has special meaning to you, your stories write themselves!
These events were the inspiration for:
What is the story ‘really’ about? – The Message/The Realization?
Being a father is so much more than the title, “daddy”. The realization that the most important gift
a parent can give is 'time' suddenly became so clear. The bond a parent builds with a child is
formed through thousands of tiny moments spent together. Moments build memories
and those memories build a connection and that connection lasts a lifetime.
Remember: Your message is COMPLETELY different to the actual event in your story.
H/W - Finish writing down your ideas in the different sections. Remember - You will shuffle around these sections for your finished draft.

Important H/W over the w/end
Do NOT forget to BRING an object into school on Monday that is important to you.
This should be something small that will fit into your back pack. The object should be associated with a special memory. If everybody remembers to do this we will get our first step on the ladder to laughter.
