Funny things they say, round 2

Our students crack us up on a daily basis with the things they say ... they are SO funny! Mrs. Connie and Mrs. LeeAnne try to write down the best one-liners, but there's a lot that gets past us. Here are some of the funniest, going back all the way to Thanksgiving.

• "I want to ride on a dolphin with Brody and Harris!"
• One little boy yelled in the face of one of our little girls, prompting her to declare, "This is the worst day ever!"
• After we pick Child of the Day, we go around our circle, sharing what is special about that child. One particular little boy was unhappy that he wasn't Child of the Day, and when his turn to share rolled around, he said with a frown, "I don't WANT to talk about Harris." This same little squirt later declared, "I didn't do ANYFING" when asked to apologize. 
• "When I grow up, I want to be a yellow crayon-giver."
• Back in November, as we were reviewing the first Thanksgiving, Mrs. Connie asked the children who was in America when the pilgrims came. The answer, of course, was the Native Americans, but several of our students immediately yelled "Jesus!" as their answer. (When all else fails, Jesus is a pretty darn good place to turn...) :-)
• During November, we also reviewed U.S. holiday traditions. Mrs. Connie declared that "everyone" eats turkey on Thanksgiving. Mrs. LeeAnne, who is a vegetarian, reminded her that not everyone eats turkey. When Mrs. LeeAnne told the class that she eats a vegetarian form of turkey at Thanksgiving, all of the kiddos said "Ewwwww." 
• Today, one of our girls enjoyed showing off her new shirt, which featured a pink ninja. Later, another classmate declared, "That shirt is AMAZING."
• Lately, we've had to get onto our boys for being a little wild. One day, we offered the girls a tiny treat - one conversation heart - as a reward for being good. (We hoped this might motivate the boys to try harder next time.) One boy looked Mrs. Connie square in the eye and sternly told her, "I am very much disappointment in you."
