To me... I teach dance classes and last night a little girl, about five, had her arm up in the air inspecting her armpit in the mirror... I say, "Anna, what the heck are you doing? She turns to me and says: "Miss Annie, I'm turning into a man." "Turning into a man?" "Yeah," she says, "I have hair growing in my armpit." I about lost it at that point. "OH yeah?" I try to keep a straight face. "Yeah, my mom has hair growing in her armpits too...we're turning into men." LOL oh man, I laughed so hard. I love kids.
kai was in dance class this morning, and she was seriously EMOTING. totally chewing up the scenery with her over the top facial expressions. it was the cutest damned thing i've ever seen. i couldn't stop giggling.
I have kids like that in a few of the classes I teach...They are the most fun...the little girl I was talking about in the OP does the same thing.
she fully commits to her character. no shyness on her part. they're getting ready for a recital and she's SO EXCITED and really working hard on her part. it's beyond sweet.
i doubt she actually had any beyond that peach fuzz we all have all over our bodies. she probably just realized her mommy had some and decided she did, too.
LOL yeah...just peach fuzz. I was talking to her mom after class, telling her the story and she says that she sees her dad and older brother (who is just a touch younger than myself) walk around without shirts on and they are really hairy...then one day recently she saw her mom's armpits when she didn't shave and commented on it... So now, I guess, she's been really hung up about having hair in her armpits too.
a six year old told me once "Imma use your ass as a shoebox bitch, Imma clip you down and chew yer face off"....to which i laughed and then he punched me in the nuts and ran off
oh kids are sweet and they alw say some funny things i teach english to 5-6 year olds and they alw say smth that makes me burst out laughing
i know this 6 year old that I sat next to on the bus once. really randomly she points at my chest and says ""are you a mommy?" nearly pissed myself laughing. gotta love those kids though lol
Last weekened, I was in the kitchen making lunch and the twins decided to go down in the basement and play. No problem. So I thought. Recently we purchased Peter Pan for the kids, and they absolutely loved it, especially the whole bit with the pixie dust. Yes, this has to do with my story, bear with me. Well, they managed to get into my craft box, and found three full bottles of glitter. Well you can imagine what came next. I went downstairs to tell them it was time for lunch, and I'm greeted by glitter, everywhere, and I mean everywhere. And there is little May-May, tossing handfulls of glitter onto Sy's head, saying "we can fly, we can fly, we can fly!" and Sy flapping his little arms like wings. Then they say in unison "mommy, this just is not working!" It was pretty cute I must say, even though I had quite a mess to clean up.
I had a 4 year old student tell me that she had a girlfriend and a boyfriend. I told her that people don't usually have a girlfriend and a boyfriend at the same time, and she said "Yes they do. My mommy does. They both sleep in her room, but not at the same time."
