Working with children is never boring. There are so many memorable moments and many funny moments too. Here are two conversations that I have had with the children this week.
Who's Your Boss?
J. (age 5): Do you have a boss?
Mrs. P.: Well, this is my school, so no, I don't really have a boss.
J. : Of course you do. It's your mom because my mom is the boss of me.
Mrs. P.: Well yes, I suppose you're right. My mom is the boss of me.
How Old Are You?
While waiting to wash our hands before lunch, 4 1/2 year old R. and I had this conversation.
R. (age 4 1/2): My brother is nine years old. How old are you?
Mrs. P.: I am twelve.
R. : Are you really twelve?
Mrs. P.: Well, really I am ______ (insert age here).
R.: *gasp* What? Really?
Mrs. P.: Why, how old do I look?
R.: You look twelve.
Mrs. P.: Well then, I must be twelve.
R. is relieved and smiles.
