I love my kids!

So, I have kids say and do ridiculous things all the time here are some of the stories:

2 weeks ago I was chatting with one of my 13 year old students the conversation is as follows:
K:" Molly, how did George Bush become President"
M: "I'm not so sure, why?"
K: "Well. he's not so good at English."
M: "I know, your English is better than his!"
K:"I know. That's bad."

Last week one of my students was sick with the flu so he couldn't come to class. One of the other students cried for the 1st 15 minutes of class because he wasn't coming. They're 7 and I'm convinced they will get married one day.

Today one of my favs (whom I usually have to growl at like a bear, or talk to like i'm a pirate) told me that he didn't live in a house:
M: Is your house red?
S: No.
M: Is it purple?
S: No
M: Do you live in a house?
S: No
M: Do you live in a cave?
S: (smiling and laughing) YES!
M: What color is your cave?
S: It's grey.
M: Are there pirates in your cave?
S: YES!!
M: Is your mom a pirate?
S: YES!!!
Then I pretended to be deathly afraid of pirates. It was awesome, he loved it.

The same kid (5 minutes later) thought it would be funny to pull off my socks. so he steals my slippers and "hides" them in his bag and then starts pulling...but I was wearing stockings, so they weren't coming off. Needless to say he was really confused! So he keeps tugging and then gets the idea to tie my stockings together. I wish I could have taken a picture, but I didn't have a camera. It was hilarious. Then he tied his own together. He's 4.

This morning my one baby came to class and didn't do anything but run in circles and giggle. It was so cute.

One of my newest students accidently said "I like cupeppers" instead of cucumbers. it was cute. She stopped and made a silly face, like "what did I just say?"


Ok, i'm going to bed!
