SEVENTEEN THINGS MY KIDS SAID ABOUT SCHOOL

1.     We had inside recess today because of the windshield factor.

2.     If it was bad to squeeze her head, it’s too late because I already did it.

3.     We prayed before snack. We prayed the food would be good.

4.     I want to make friends but the teacher interrupts me when I’m talking.

5.     I did fall asleep in class. For energy. I put a lot of energy into my sleeping.

6.     He put a dead sandwich in my cubby. That’s why he ended up sitting on a cupcake.

7.     She was the one who threw up but we all cried for her.

8.     We had Dodgeball and the teacher explained the rules so we all threw balls at him at the same time.

9.     How do you get expelled?

10. I still have the same friends. I just rotate them when they get annoying.

11. Mrs. R.’s husband had a sleepover at his friend’s house because he drank too much soda pop at a party.

12. She said seven times seven is 49 and seven times eight is 56 and blah blah blah whatever….

13. My teacher only wears high heels because she has very high feet.

14. The principal got a government bailout for his boat.

15. Good person? I said good-LOOKING! I don’t care if she’s a miserable person.

16. Nate was ignorant to me at water table time so I’m ignoring him for two years.

17. Where do teachers stay during the summer?

LOL

Priceless, Jacquelyn! I laughed out loud at several of them, but I can't quite get over #2. "If it was bad to squeeze her head, it’s too late because I already did it."

I might just laugh the rest of the day about that.
