Six-year-old: "Can you come to my house today and give me a birthday present?"
Oh, kids. I'm so happy I'm always around them! This year I'll be at elementary schools and a high school, so I'll have a bit more variety, although last year I was at elementary schools, a middle school, and a preschool. I guess I just love being in schools. I'm keeping a list of all of the schools at which I've done work, and it makes me happy.
I wish I could capture in words my exact experience of certain facial expressions and voices I've encountered with kids. Hilarious. Like these preschoolers' exclamations. Or every detail about this conversation. Or this one that made me burst out laughing uncontrollably when I probably should have immediately told him not to use that word. This "I love you" story is a classic in my brain too. I miss those kids SO much. If I'm ever sad, all I have to do is think about them.
