Heard at school

O: "Miss A, I'm running out of energy."
Me: "Well why don't you go sit in the library and rest with a book then?"
O: "Okay!" Runs over to the library area...yeah, out of energy.

A child trips over his own shoes, another drops a plate that clatters extremely loudly, another child is too far on the edge of their chair and tips it over with a crash. For all these instances another child immediately asks, "Are you ok?" and then immediately add on, "Did it break?".....

Apparently these are the questions I ask way too often! (But at least they're in the right order!)

Heard at school

In the morning daycare room with several children coloring together at a table.

"What are you drawing?" One asks another.

"It's an abstract." The girl responds without pausing.

"Oh," Other child resumes coloring.


In the classroom where two children are doing fetching with the kitchen classified cards.

"Will you go get me the Whisky?" One says solemnly.

"Whisky, whisky, whisky," the second chants at she skips off.

At this point their teacher (aka. Me) needs to leave the room for a minute to laugh without having to explain why calling a whisk, whisky, is so funny.
