Conversations I had with two lil boys as soon as they entered the classroom this morning.
Lil Jonny: Mrs. Lai, here's a note from my Mom. She's coming to pick me up at lunch.
Me: [slightly alarmed] Oh, is everything alright? Do you have a doctor's appointment?
Lil Jonny: [excited] No, we're going to buy our Christmas Tree.
Me: [incredulous] You're going to buy a Christmas Tree?!?
2 fine minutes later
Lil Marky: Mrs. Lai, remember... I have to leave at 2:30 today.
Me: Oh right. Do YOU have a doctor's appointment?
Lil Marky: Oh No...I have to get my hair cut.
Imagine the ensuing gossip and complaining by parents if I announced that I had to leave class early to buy my Christmas tree and get my haircut! That latter of which I really do need.
