Smith & Wesson


We have an adorable kindergarten teacher in our building, Mrs. Wesson, who recently informed us all that she and her husband are expecting a baby.  She couldn’t wait to tell me the story about how she informed her class yesterday.  Here was the conversation she had, and the response from one of her kiddos.

 

“Class, I wanted you to know that my husband and I are having a baby.” 

 

Annie (looking very thoughtful, with her hand on her chin):  “Mrs. Wesson, exactly when are you inspecting this baby?”

Aw, that's cute. She's not too far off. A sonogram is like an inspection!

Shortly after birth.

- NOTE: After birth, not afterbirth.

I'd say seven or eight months is reasonable.

I would want to inspect my baby right away because being preggos is no fun at my age.

I inspect my baby twice a day, at the crack of dawn and at dusk. We end it with a salute. I figure it is a good idea to get the routine in early before I have an army of children..

I find it very sad that I had to read it twice before I got it.

Move that kid to first grade so you can correct her. (But praise her on the cuteness first!)

Bwahahahahaha. Out of the mouth of babes. Adorable and hilarious too.

I forgot to mention this the other day. Your little troll under "Want to Advertise?" used to be my avatar.

Have a terrific day. :)

First, I love your blog. It's so funny and I often laugh out loud while reading your stories. This entry reminds me of the following story about my grandson who is almost 5 years old.

My daughter and her husband were having a conversation between themselves. Ethan, their 4 1/2 year old, was in the other room, apparently listening in. My daughter used the word "obligated" and this is what happened from there:

Ethan: What did you just say about an alligator?

Mom: I didn't say alligator, I said obligated.

(Few seconds pass)

Ethan: What color was the obligator?

My second grade kiddo told me 'Aw, that's too bad...I always thought you were so cute'... apparently she knows what 9 months of packing a kids does to ones appearance.

Yeah, I still get the 'ex' and 'in' thing mixed up sometimes.

So cute. When my mother was pregnant with my youngest sister, my brother thought she actually had a basketball under her shirt.

I had a comment but then I looked out the window and my GORGEOUS garden. Sigh. I have a gift.

Jeanne Estridge said...

No point in inspecting them -- parents-to-be can't see the flaws anyway!

Unknown said...

I hope they inspect it well. You know for signs of an alien baby and all

That was cute! Too bad no amount of "inspection" prepares you for when they morph into teenagers!
