Rated M

Today on the playground I had to laugh because two boys were playing some sort of shoot em up game. Well as they ran by another kid, one of the two shoot em up participants said to the other participant "... and then I blew you up." The kid they were running by while this "blow you up" statement was said yelled out to them, "hey you shouldn't be playing that game! It sounds like it is rated M for Mature and that is not allowed at school."
Do we live in a video game world, or what?

Favorite thing said to me today....

My favorite thing said to me today from a 4 year old at work....

"I want to be like Jesus. Can I be like Jesus?"

love it!!!!

This statement was then followed by, "Jesus saw a ghost... the ghost said boo... and Jesus said AHHHHH! then a boat sunk."

But I liked the first part of our conversation. ;)

I learned today...

1. being around grumpy people is much like wearing control top panty hose. annoying, uncomfortable, and flat out sucks.

2. watching a 4 year old eat a piece of chocolate cake can make all the difference in my day.... ;)

Lunch frustrations and laughs

So, today I was frustrated at lunch cause little kiddos have touch you when they talk to you.... They get your attentions by grabbing your arm and tapping your leg. So, by the end of lunch today I had lunch on both arms of my sweatshirt and mash potatoes on the sides of my pants. In my frustration I snapped "kids... quit touching me!!!!" They were ok with it though... I felt bad. Well, I was laughing pretty hard also at lunch today cause this kid wouldn't eat her food cause she didn't "like" it. So, I told her how if we eat with our eyes closed we don't see it go in our mouths so we end up liking everything. so I showed her how I can eat with my eyes closed. It worked!!! She tried it and miraculously thought lunch wasn't so bad anymore. She ate all her lunch - with her eyes closed of course.

potty mouth

I have this one child that sometimes has a poor choice of language at school. And when I say child I'm talking about a 3rd grader. I would get sooo mad at this third grader for the words he'd choose to use and that he'd get in trouble over and over again and still use those words. Well, after this kid's father picked him up from school one day while saying in front of 30 other kids to his son "your in deep *&%$", now I just feel sorry for the kid. Now it is hard to get mad at him. If only I could put the parent in time out. Some parents....

I HATE CATS!

I hate cats! This was a show & tell a child brought to work... a "realistic" toy cat. I think I will have bad dreams tonight.

toe

I dropped something on my toe. I cried. It throbbed. But it is looking much better now. I should have took a picture with the blood.
