The funny things they say........

Coming in from outside, we were standing in the hallway in line for the bathroom, one little girl comes to me and say, "Mrs. Bird, I think I have the termites." Meanwhile, scratching her head and neck furiously. I laughed because i heard some of the other girls screaming when they saw bugs crawling on the sidewalk and called them termites. I asked her if she was made of wood, to which she responded, "yes!" I proceeded to tell her that termites usually eat wood and live underground, so she probably did not have "the termites" To which another little girl said, "Termites live underground? With the devils? Mrs. bird, did you know there are devils underground? They live there, cause jesus, he told them they had to for twelve years. Did you know devils are a person and they really live underground!"
All this interesting information in one conversation!
While we were standing in the hallway, we were looking at the posters they had made of themselves when they were babies. One little boy was looking at a poster that had a photo of a mom on it. He points to the poster and said she has dead eyes. One of the other kids said why, he proceeded to tell him that she has dead eyes because they are red.
What??!!!
where do they get these things??!!
HHHMMMM i think i'm going to eat cake now.....

okay, so the mom in me wants to know, did she have lice? last night i was getting pre-op stuff done and kassidy proceeded to tell the registration clerk that she was alergic to nickel and then that she had to have a shot of lidocaine b/c her ear lobe swallowed her earing back. i about died that she could spit it all back to someone so accuratley. the clerk asked if it was true and all i could do was laugh!

she did not have lice abbi, but she has had a whole nest in her head in the past and i'm not even kidding, so i am thinking that is where she made the connection.
