I spent the better part of today convincing the class that contrary to what Frank matter-of-factly announced at morning telling sharing, Santa Claus was NOT dead.
Oh, the best way to give the teacher a migraine on the first day back from a five THOUSAND day break? Announce to the class that Santa Claus is dead.
After I had finally managed to erase ALL memory of the incident, Stanley stood up to perform at our "performance closing circle" at the very end of the day.
He sang a song he composed himself. He called it "Santa Claus is Dead."
Those two have finally decided to play for the same team. It's a @(#*$&@(@* conspiracy.

May I just leave with one thought?
UH-OH!
How many parents have called you? LOL
OH MY.......You sure have a FUN class! Sorry but I see why your blog is named Vodkamom now! LOL!
Does that mean I have to drink ANOTHER bottle of wine to get that cork for you? Okay, okay!

Oh now that's just funny. . . I don't care who you are. . . these boys are hilarious!
Can't you just tell the kiddos that he'll be risen in 3 days?
Whoops! I forgot about political correctness, so I guess not. ; )
You make me want to be a teacher.
Also, before coming, I didn't "get" why you were a vodkamom.
Now, it's clear as day.
new to your blog, just wanted to say whaddup, homie.
Just say no, that is the Easter Bunny that is dead !! :)
It will give you a few months til you have to think of something new.
You could not pay me enough money to teach kindergartners. LOL
Oh honey! Slugging down this bottle as fast as I can for you...passing cork...
Gah! What part of "We will never speak of this again" did he not understand? But I'm curious about Stanley's spontaneously composed song.... Was it a mournful dirge? Or more of a vengeful tone?
Oh my! Sounds like the way my son likes to spread Christmas cheer.My poor daughter never had a CHANCE to believe!
Maybe you can make up your own tale by telling them that he was dead until Dorothy went to see the Wizard and then she clicked her slippers and he woke up and all was fine! LOL Oh well, I'm sure you're getting plenty of phone calls from parents.
The Peanut's best friends (sisters) both have severe Santa Horrors. The idea that some strange fat man comes into your house at night while you are sleeping creeps them out (Goldie Locks also falls in this catagory; that girl goes into those poor bears house without being invited). So much so, that Santa doesn't come to their house.
My friend (their Mamma) lives in fear that her three year old is going to go to preschool one day and announce that Santa doesn't exist. Fortunately she was informed when she brought up the subject up that Of course Santa exists she just doesn't believe in him.
Be afraid. Be very afraid. This could lead to mutiny.
I think it's time for a smear campaign against little Frank and Stanley. Start telling the other kids that they are compulsive liars and are part of the plot to steal christmas. Then get everyone to ignore them, or cover their ears and hum loudly whenever they come near... what? Bullyings ok if everyones involved, cos then its just downgraded to peer pressure, right?
lol Sorry, I can imagine your pain, but those boys are a riot. We're frequently trying to prevent the leaking of Santa/Easter Bunny/Tooth Fairy secrets here.

VM, look, Asian spam is honored to wander your blog! This is why I "approve" all comments instead of letting them post automatically.
This is a set-up. There's only one thing that can come next:
Zombie Santa.

Looks like the word veri isn't doing its job these days. I first thought these were parents posting but I think not. Unless of couse any of them run a Japanese debt relief business or law firm.
Oh my.... pass the chocolate to Vodkamom - she deserves it after today!

I am honored to wander your blog.
But I think Frank & Stanley need a girl to join their little organization for their "Triad of Terror".
;-)
Best story from those two yet. Wise beyond their years.
Nothing like spreading a little Christmas cheer on the first day back from Thanksgiving break! Gotta love those two!
Poor Mrs. Clause. Perhaps Frank's 'punishment' should be a letter to the widow. ;)
Augh!!!! those boys
If you find that cork could you let me know where you got it?
Hey, that's teamwork. It'll stand them in good stead for later ;)
FrankNStanley. . . the new, modern day, Frankenstein!!!
These boys are bad!!!
That happened last year with my first graders. One child decided to tell all of the others that there was no Santa Claus. I spent the whole three weeks before Christmas trying to convince the other children that this was not the case. This then led to discussions about respecting what others believe. That stopped this duscussion in its tracks. Every time someone tried to dispute Santa Claus, the children would say... "You should respect what I believe... " In a few years a parent will hunt me down when their child uses that on them in their teen years.
Does that guy "wondering your blog" know Frank and Stanley... or the dead Santa?
All I can say is how many more days til vacation?
Hang in there, jj
How on earth will you survive this school year?
Wait? He's not? I coulda sworn...
I could have read that wrong, but I think the ghost of Santa is on your blog. wandering. spooky.
They know there's a competition between the two...they have found your blog
Reading your blog reminds me of why I changed my major from Elementary Ed to Nursing! However, I don't think the sick folks I take care of have give me anything this funny to blog about! How in the world do you keep from laughing all day long?
