kids are awesome, part two

Thursday, June 12, 2008 - Posted by Amanda Bast
This post is dedicated entirely to J, in grade two at Lex. He goes to WMB as well, so I see him up to four times a week. He's fantastic and has a sense of humor that is far beyond his years.
Me: Why are you colouring everything blue? What disease does the poor mouse have if his eyeballs are blue?
J: He ate blue cheese.
Lydia (the teacher): That's actually funny!

Things about J's future wife (he has decided these things all on his own):
1. She will not be French, therefore he doesn't need to pay attention in French class.
2. She has to take his last name...none of this new age hyphenated business
3. Ladies will not be first

This week has been presentation week, so I was sitting in the rocking chair. J's desk is across the room, and he sat holding up his journal which read: "That is my rocking chair. Get off. It's mine, not Amanda's" for a good twenty minutes.

He also wrote me a note that read:

"Dear Amanda,

STOP TALKING TO ME AT CHURCH

*my rocking chair, get off. It's mine*

from,

J"

Grade Two:

W: You'd have four more than you need.
Mr. J: Oh yeah! That's right! High five, buddy!
W: (high fives J)
Mr. J: Actually, high four, because you'd have four too many.
W: No.

W (in gym, yelling rather loudly): HE SAVED ME! J SAAAVED ME, Mr. J!!!!!!

M (to T, who is doing a presentation on Germany): If you traveled there, would you take your cat with you?

Mrs. B: You should give things to your mom on mother's day. Like diamonds. Give her diamonds.
Me: Yes, shower her with diamonds.
J: Wouldn't that hurt?

A: My mom's last name is Brito.
J: WHAT?! Your mom is a burrito?

Ja: Man, I'm letting out a lot of toots today. They don't really make noise. Mostly silent but deadly.

Kindergarten:

Me: Ew, that shark liver looks pretty gross.
I: Actually, it's not too gross for me. I'm a scientist.

Principal (to student): D, did you call him a moo moo cow?
D: Well, um I... I...
Principal: Did you call him a moo moo cow?


I have plenty more, I just can't think of them at the moment.
