I'm a first grade teacher. Here is my funny.

There is a little guy in my class who has an extremely vivid imagination. He is also very bright and very much into fairy tales and fantasy.

One day, after school, the following conversation occurred. It is 100% verbatim. I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.

Welcome to first grade.

Student: Can I tell you something that might make you upset?

Me: Of course, you can tell me anything.

Student: Well, I was really mad the other day when you clipped me down to "think about it."

Me: I can understand that. The good news is, you turned your behavior around and were able to clip back up. That's what it's all about, making better choices!

Student: (ignoring my encouraging reflection) I was so mad I wanted to take out my magic seashell...turn myself into a girl so you wouldn't recognize me...and marry (my husband's name) to hurt your feelings!

Me: (absolutely dumbfounded and trying not laugh hysterically) Wow buddy. You're right, that would hurt my feelings. I am really glad you decided again that...

I desperately need this book "I Could Chew on This: And Other Poems by Dogs. Based on your post, I feel like you probably need it too. Hehe.

Thanks for the contest and enjoy all of the entertainment!

Dang it.

Hmmm... how about The Pacific (Bilingual) $33?

It'd be fun to keep in the lake house too :D

Oh oh! Her sister might really like this framed Sweet Buddha poster - a robot climbing a donut mountain to reach a chocolate Buddha. Really. I absolutely love it, so I might be biased. Or maybe a beautifully decorated indigo scarf?

Hm, if her mom has a sense of humor, maybe Sorry I Pooped in Your Shoe (and Other Heartwarming Letters from Doggie), I Could Chew on this and other Poems or the highly acclaimed (and more serious) A Dog's Purpose.
