Just some anecdotes

"Mrs. Person, my neck hurts." (she means throat... she tells me this daily.)

"What is a hotdog?"
"You know, a weeeenie. Like a weeenie. With a bun. The bun opens on one side and you put the weeeenie in it!"
"Oh...." (exit Mrs. Person from the room- cracking up)

"knock knock"
"who's there?"
"bat"
"Bat who?"
"bat who! That's right!" (i have no idea why that was funny...)

"Mrs. Person, how's your day been yesterday?" (this child asks me this almost everyday...)

a student was standing at my desk watching me, I turned and asked "What do you need?"
"A hug!!"

"We have pictures! And we are going to put them on our shirts!" (one child's explanation of our self portraits in which we are drawing our heads and torsos, and gluing photos on the shirt part...)

"Valentimes" (all of my kids during our Valentines' Day program practice)

child: "The art teacher's going to get pregnant!"
me: "I think you mean she IS pregnant and is GOING to have a baby... "

"You know Jesus? He looks into our hearts. He lives in the sky and he can see us. And sometimes he eats grass."
"He eats grass? Why?"
"I don't know, we haven't gotten to that part of the book yet."

Just wanted to remember why I love my job. My kids are the best!!
