Jacob

"Ms. Kara did you know that you can wash your clothes or dry clean them?"
Me "Yes I did know that."
"Most of my clothes are play clothes so you can just throw them in the wash."
Me "And do you have clothes that you dry clean?"
"Nooooo but my dad does. His work clothes. You have to take those to the dry cleaners. So you can't spill on them like my clothes. You have to be careful."

Very perceptive.

"Ms. Kara before I moved I lived in Georgia."

Me "Jacob try and walk around the puddle so you do not get wet."
"Buttttt Ms. Kara my shoes are water soakers."
Me "What does that mean?"
"The water hits them and my shoes soak it up but my feet do not get wet."
Me "That is really neat but we still need to try and walk around the puddles."

While building a fort and collecting wood chips....

"We have 8,899 guests coming over so we need to make a lot of turkey."
Me "How many people are coming?"

Hard at work for a few minutes....

"And with the leftovers we can make pumpkin pie."

We just finished talking about what everyone was for Halloween and now it is almost Thanksgiving. Love this time of year.

"Ms. Kara did you know that space goes on forever
....and that birds have hollow bones....
AND horses sleep with their eyes open."

Me "Okay, one more thing and then you can play."
"Another word for fall is autumn. Oh and love never ends."


AND that is why I love my job.

Happy Friday! Have a wonderful weekend!
