Yesterday I had the privilege of chaperoning my son, along with the rest of his Kindergarten class, as they celebrated the end of the school year with a picnic. What follows are eleven actual quotes that I overheard the children say as I monitored them in the park. One of them was said by my son Edward. Feel free to guess which one.
- “I have four dollars in quarters. But someday I’m gonna get four more dollars, and then I’m going to have eight! Mwaaa-ha-ha-ha-haaaaaa!”
- “You look exactly like my dad, except he’s not wearing that shirt.”
- “Poison ivy has three leaves and it has acid that burns your face off.”
- “Hey, there’s my preschool. I used to go there a long time ago when I was a baby last year!”
- “Ahhhhh, the smell of fresh Doritos!”
- “Are you eating FOOD?! Food makes you POOP!”
- “The church is our friend, but it can’t take pictures of us because it doesn’t have hands.”
- “I don’t have a watch so I don’t know how many steps I’ve taken today.”
- “Good chocolate has milk in it and the bad chocolate has maple syrup in it. That’s something I just said that’s totally not true.”
- “Well YOU’RE mean for CALLING me mean, meanie!”
- “Now THAT was a field trip!”
