I thought I would mix things
up a bit and share a few funny quotes from the children…
There isn’t a single day that
goes by without a TON of laughter during school and after school. Kids say the
funniest things sometimes, as I’m sure any teacher or parent can testify :)
Needless to say, I’ve got
quite a collection of funny little quotes and stories from the beautiful
children I get to teach and love every day. I have been so very blessed by my time
here and I hope that in some way, these silly little quotes give you just a
glimpse of the joy and love that I am surrounded by on a daily basis.
*Student: “I’m excited for
tomorrow.”
Me: “For our compliment
party?”
Student: “Yeah. And because
it’s Thanksgiving!”
(Actually, it was Valentine’s
Day, or Día del Amor y la Amistad)
*4 year old: “When I grow up,
I want to be a real ballet Barbie…and a cowgirl.” (To Diego) “and someday, you
will grow up like a king!”
*4 year old: “That’s not a
bird, it’s a donkey! …You know why?”
Me: “Why?”
4 year old: “Someday donkeys
will fly!”
*While reading a book one of
the characters said they were going to play chess.
4 year old (sincerely): “Ah,
I LOVE chess!”
Me (surprised): “Wow, I don’t
even know how to play chess!”
4 year old: *thinks for a
second* “I don’t either!”
*Visitor: “What’s your
favorite food?”
3 year old: “My favorite food is hot dogs and basketball”
*Newer Student: “Mrs. Kylie?”
3rd grader: “She’s
Miss…She’s not married!”
Newer Student: “She’s not? I
thought she was.”
3rd grader: “Nope.
Not yet otherwise she would have brought her husband here with her!”
Newer Student: Oh, I thought
she had kids!”
*1st grader: “I
thought I saw you in Mommy’s room.”
3rd grader: “What?
You thought you saw me in my mother’s womb?”
…Psalm 139 on the mind?!
*4 year old: “I’ve had 17
tacos already!...This is my second.”
*6 year old: “I want real
snow. You know why?”
Me: “Why?”
6 year old: “So I can eat
it!”
4 year old: “I want snow so I
can build a snowman and a Barbie…(whispers) and a prince! Hehe.”
*4 year old: “Butterflies!”
*running through dust and smiling*
Me: “No. That’s dust…”
4 year old: “Oh”
*4 year old: “Something
stinks” *smells her feet* “I think it’s my feet.”
Me: “You have stinky feet?”
4 year old: “No…it must be my
shoes” *smells her shoes* “Yup, they smell like dirt.”
*5th grader:
“Maestra Kylie, your skin changed colors!” –Yes, I’m tan.
*6 year old: “I’m so excited
because we’re almost done with the alphabet!” (Silence) “Aren’t you guys
excited?!” (Silence and weird looks from the other kids) “I said aren’t you
guys excited?!” (More silence)
Me: “I’m excited with you!”
6 year old: (to the rest of
the table) “Uh, can’t you guys be excited with me?”
*Doing a lesson for SEP Math…
Me: “Cinco por dos.”
Abel: “Cien.”
Me: “No. Cinco por Dios….Dos!”
Yup, we all make mistakes…
*3 year old: “You make me
funny!”
Me: “I make you laugh?”
3 year old: “No, you make me
funny!”
