life/work is Funny :)

so here it is, 10.10.10! i thought it would be a little more exciting than this. i've looked forward to it for the past 2 months and really i just have a headache. haha but tomorrow is monday and the beginning of a 40 hour work week. however, i work with kids(older toddlers) and it's never boring. so today's blog is things that happen and the kids say :)....

1. we had been singing wheels on the bus earlier that day, so at lunch one of the little boys holds up a piece of corn and says "corn goes beep beep!"

2. same little boy, at lunch time...we had apricots and the kids kept calling them either oranges or peaches, so i decided to emphasize that they were apricots, as we talk about our food and talk about which food group it belongs to. after lunch time is nap time. said little boy (lol always wanted to say that) runs to his cot, grabs his blanket and yanks it off the cot and yells "offricot!" haha i don't think i was very successful in conveying the meaning of the food, but they were quite successful in making me laugh :)

3. the other day out on the playground one of the little boys (in my class) runs up to one of the little girls (in the older class) and asks her "do you need help? cuz i'm a guy!" *insert karate pose. hahaha i couldn't stop laughing, all i could think is yep, you're definitely a guy ;)

4. art time! one of the little boys started drawing pictures of sun people a couple of weeks ago and mostly draws what he knows, his family. so he drew the usual of hair, eyes, mouth and added the arms and legs...and 3 circles ? true story, they were his mom's boobs and belly button(which he proceeded to add to all his pictures now). haha

5. and of course, my favorite...the many songs i've heard children in any class from mine to the school age children sing include: sean kingston 'fire burnin', avril lavigne 'girlfriend', t-pain 'buy you a drank', lady gaga anything and i wish i could remember the other one, i think it was one of trey songz. haha

i love talking about the kids in my class as if they were my own. haha silly kiddos :)
