I'd like an up-do please...



I was sitting at my table Friday organizing notes from home, stickers for children, activities for morning centers, etc., all the while listening to Lateesha telling me how her mother had taken her to her beauty shop and had her hair done. (She’s a gorgeous little girl, and her hair was spectacular….)

 

Johnny came running up to me to tell me a story, when he stopped short and looked at Lateesha. He looked very closely at her very intricate and beautiful cornrows – and then turned to me.

 

“Wait, is it crazy hair day???? Nobody told me!”

 

 

I’ve decided Monday’s lesson will be on tact.  I’ll call it  “How to get a prom date in three easy steps.”

Will the Prom date lesson read like this?

1) Shower
2) Buy flowers
3) Get her drunk before asking if she'll go with you


So Johnny is a scream. He would look at me on any given day and ask that same question.

Tact is one of the main subjects that should be taught, along with manners, and tolerance.. no one uses math or english anymore. LOL

Learning how to talk to women should be a fundamental Kindergarten class for tomorrow's young gentlemen to take.

Whoops. I think Johnny along with every other human male would benefit from your tact lecture. Why not do a satellite broadcast?

We have to teach them that it's not always a good idea to call 'em as you see 'em. LOL

Gotta love spouting kids... ;)

Peggy said...

You sure never know what kids will say. I guess we can give the little boy something for his honest remark and then teach the Tact class

Oops. . . just oops, what comes up comes out, huh.

Lateesha didn't hurt him, did she? Sounds like a close call, if not.

Once when I wore pig tails

(I know its ridiculous for a grown woman, but my hair was in-between and I was desperate and it looked pretty cute if you must know)

Five asked "Where'd you get that hair?"
