You shouldn't congratulate a woman on being pregnant unless she looks like this! |
You never know what kids are going to say! As we all know, nothing quite compares to the honesty of a child. You can count on children to say exactly what’s on their mind. They tell it how it is and they don’t worry about being tactful. Teaching first grade students and having three young children of my own, I am well aware of this. However … I wasn’t quite expecting what happened this afternoon after dismissal. One of my former students came up to me with a smile on her face. She fondly put her arms around me, patted my stomach, and proudly exclaimed, “Mrs. Roller, oh, you’re pregnant again!” I WAS pregnant with my middle child when this student was in my class; however I am NOT pregnant NOW. OK, I may be a little out of shape, but I didn’t think I looked pregnant. I guess this is my wake up call. Maybe I need to start using my elliptical machine for something other than a coat rack. Hmmmmm…
It’s true…kids say the craziest things. What humorous things have your students shared with you?
