One of the things I want to be sure to include in this blog is a collection of the great things kids say in class.
I worked in a first grade class yesterday. As I was passing out papers, a little girl said, "Mrs. M, you smell good."
I smiled back at her and thanked her for her compliment.
She added, "You smell like my mom's pet store."
I stopped in my tracks. I had taken a shower that morning, and while it was pretty warm, I was pretty sure that I wasn't stinky. But then she continued.
"My mom uses an air freshener that only lasts for a day, but it smells good when we first take it out."
Oh.
I smiled and moved on, relieved that I didn't smell like a fish tank or the gerbil cage.
You never know what they are going to say.
