Honestly, some days I'm convinced I'm just having coffee with the girls.


We were working in our journals during Kid Writing today, and it was the girls' turn to sit at my table.  They were working on their pictures, and I was helping with the words when SOMEHOW the girls got on the topic of pierced ears.   (We had spent the last ten minutes searching for the tiny, clear BACK to one of Sasha's earrings, only to miraculously find it on the carpet.  I'm surprised jack hadn't eaten it, but that's another story altogether.)


"When I get big, I'm gonna get my nose pierced AND maybe my LIP!" Lily said dramatically.


Sasha looked at me and raised her eyebrows.  "Well," she said matter of-factly, sitting with her legs crossed as she colored, "I might get my nose pierced, but never my privacy.  No girl, not my privacy."





um.



(Omg.  I don't know HOW I hold it together.  I just don't know.)

This reminds me of a recent incident with one of our little girls. Only, the teacher was the teacher saying some inappropriate things. It was an honest mistake but I'll never live it down! I LOVE teaching kindergarten. Sometimes I don't know how I make it through the day without wetting my pants.

Yikes. I'm not getting mine pierced either.

I'm thinking you might have just learned something about Sasha's mom that you probably didn't want to know...

Mrs. E said...

I'm with Jeff. I'm thinking Mom might know where Sasha got the idea about her privacy.

Vodka Mom said...

Everyday Goddess said...

That would be lunacy to do to one's privacy.

Ann Imig said...

just the phrase "My privacy" alone kills me!

DEFINITELY a future for Sasha and Frank.

Be sure to introduce them, VM!

(Might be scary to see them in action at recess together!)

I need this story after days day in the classroom. Although, if I've learned one thing it's that they don't always mean what we think they mean. Is it possible that her definition of privacy and our "growned up" (Lord, I love it when they call me a growned up) definition.
