This boy came home yesterday with an addition (or subtraction, if you please) to his face.

I said, "Oh your tooth finally came out! Hooray!"

He said, "My teacher was drying my tooth with a paper towel and when she took the paper towel out, my tooth was in it!"

I replied, "Uh, why was your teacher drying your tooth with a paper towel?"

He didn't seem to know or care.

Now that's one tricky teacher.

This boy came home from our Easter trip a little hopped up (no pun intended) on Easter candy. He was running in place madly. He said, "I am trying to burn all my cholesterol up!" A few minutes later he said, "I wish they made a candy that didn't have any sugar in it, that made you want to exercise!"

I replied, "They do, it's called vegetables."
"oh."

The above picture is a recreation of the actual event. The picture below is a recreation of the recreation, and definitely the wrong boy. But, he's cute too.

Don't you know "drying off teeth" is one of the first things us teachers learn? It's right up there with tying shoes and cleaning up throw-up.
