Facts:
-Yesterday, we had a huge stinky foot debacle in the car after school. Cute mary jane-style shoes with no socks and a first grader don't mix.
-I wear glasses, daily.
Story:
I was going over spelling words with Shelby tonight.
One word was "Blunt" so I explained to her what blunt meant. "It can be when a knife isn't sharp...or it can be when you just say what you're thinking, like, 'I'm gonna be blunt. Your feet stink." We giggled.
She quickly understood, looking at me with a smirk and replying, "I'm gonna be blunt. YOU HAVE TO GET RID OF THOSE GLASSES."
REALLY?!?! I feigned heartbreak and left the room for a while.
Upon return, we started back on the spelling list. The next word was UGLY. I squinted at her and dared her to use it in a sentence. She smiled and giggled and thought hard and finally, eventually replied, (spelling it all out) "Y-O-U A-R-E N-O-T U-G-L-Y."
Redeemed! I told her she better be glad for that "N-O-T."
I love my clever girl!
