I Like Chris Because...

I found these in an envelope with a Christmas tree on it. I have to guess that they are part of a sweet, little holiday project from 8th grade, maybe 7th. I don't actually remember this, but I think it's pretty clear that each kid in the class had to fill in a reason why they appreciated each of their classmates. I think it's a pretty good idea, actually, but probably incredibly difficult for a bunch of 11- or 12-year-old kids. Children of that age, if memory serves, are not particularly prone to compliment or flattery so getting us to say nice things about each other was, I'm sure, like pulling teeth. Consequently, my redeeming attributes are few but at least I was able to rest easy knowing I was, "...just like John Travolta". (?)
