Kids

From My Buddy Ed in Florida, via e-mail:

A group of kindergartners were trying very hard to become accustomed to the first grade. The biggest hurdle they faced was that the teacher insisted on NO baby talk! "You need to use Big People words," she was always reminding them.

She asked Chris what he had done over the weekend. "I went to visit my Nana. "No, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use Big People words!"

She then asked Mitchell what he had done. "I took a ride on a choo choo." She said, "No, you took a ride on a TRAIN. You must remember to use Big People words."

She then asked little Zach what he had done. "I read a book," he replied.

"That's WONDERFUL!" the teacher said. "What book did you read?" Zach thought real hard about it, then puffed out his chest with great pride, and said, "Winnie the SHIT."
