Headed for the Home

A student brought in a 24 pack of play-doh yesterday and then a play-doh ice cream parlor today. I asked why she kept bringing things in...

Me: Thanks for giving me all this but don't you want it?
Student A: We aren't allowed to have play-doh in the house.
Me: Oh. I see. Where did you get this stuff?
Student A: From Santa.
Me: He must not have known the rules.
Student B: Maybe you told him but he forgot.
Student C: Yeah! He is OLD you know!!!

Target Run

While Mrs. X and I were at the park walking our dog, we passed a little girl and her mom.

Girl: Mom, you won't ever get me a dog! After we go to Target, I want to go get a dog!!

Papa, Papa, Paparazzi

Overheard on the playground

"NO! You are the paparazzi, you have to chase us!"

Clearly they watch way to much E! TV.

A Rose by Any Other Name...

While reading a book about a kid who gets a new baby sister and doesn't like her, I stopped and asked who had younger siblings.

Me: Raise your hand if you have a younger brother or sister.
(several students raise their hands)
Me: Who remembers when the baby came home?
(several students keep their hands up.)
Student: When my brother was born I wanted to name him Scooby-Doo or Jesus.
Me: What's his name?
Student: Carter.


I'm pretty sure I peed a little.
