A colleague told this story about storytime in Kindergarten. She had all the children around her for the story of the Three Little Pigs. She went through the wolf blowing down the first 2 pigs houses only in her version, the wolf ate the first 2 pigs. When she got to the huffing and puffing part of the 3rd little pig's house one little boy who had been sitting quietly for this whole time suddenly said, "Well, that son of a bitch!" just matter of factly. Another of those "run out of the room" moments. However, to her credit, she was able to finish the story. Funnier still is that not a single child reacted to the little guy's exclamation. Being a teacher is just full of those "surprise" moments that you really are not sure what to do with as they have never happened before and probably will never happen again. I ought to write a book......
p.s. Today was my last day of school for the year!

I shed a few tears laughing this morning THANKS to your blog! Thank you so much for sharing! Nothing liek a cup of coffe and some hard laughing to get your day going! I look forward to more of your posts!
I have elementary age children and was wondering if you could also include crafts and project ideas...or even games..after long hot days in the sun sometimes my boys and I like to spend the rest of the time indoors doing crafts...I'm always trying to gather ideas!!!
