Almost every day, there's a little note in Maceo's notebook from school about his behavior. Most days, we get a shit sandwich: something good surrounding something shitty Maceo did. Often times, it's hitting or chasing or pushing or throwing something at another kid. Because we don't see any other notebooks, we fear that Maceo is the only kid at school to do this bad behavior. Recently, we instituted a program to help motivate him to behave better. Each day he came home with a clean rap sheet, we would move a jelly bean from one glass jar with 10 beans in it to another. When he had moved all 10, he would get a prize. Well, guess who got a prize!
The answer is the pleased and proud boy in the picture, if you weren't sure. And if that's not cute enough, Maceo is convinced his action figure's name is South America. (Also, hulk's name is Croco man and he has "big green muscles and purple underwear." Now you know.)
