Trevor Edison

Trev has LOVED learning about Thomas Edison for his big project and Patriotic Performance. I think he really relates to the way Edison's mind worked. I truly believe this boy has some amazing things up his sleeve. I know I'm his mother, but still....

Tonight was the big performance night for all 2nd graders, (just like when Clara was in 2nd grade).

Trev said all of his lines loudly and clearly, sang with all his might, and looked ridiculously cute in a bowtie.

Trev's only three laments are that:
a) Edison's awesome incandescent lightbulbs are now obsolete.
b) Alexander Graham Bell beat him to inventing the phone.
c) Henry Ford's internal combustion engine came out just before Edison managed to perfect the battery for the electric car he was working on. In Trev's words, "Can you imagine how much better the earth would be if everyone had been driving electric cars right from the beginning????"

Now that is something beautiful to imagine, isn't it?
