~Quotes from the Classroom #4~


*I have spent ALOT of time taking care of children! I have been a nanny, a first grade teacher, and a preschool teacher. Throughout my experience I have been delighted to hear many hilarious quotes from children as they try to understand the world around them. Many times I have been able to take a little life lesson away for myself from their observations.*

Today's quote came from one of my favorite little people ever-Mr. G. This kid was always up to something, and usually it was something hilarious! This particular moment happened while we were outside playing on the playground.


ME: noticing G approaching with cupped hands and PRAYING it was not some sort of insect-"What go you have there G?"

G: showing me his empty hands-"It's a tiny horse named, Little Foot, cause he has TINY FEET! You can be his mommy!"

ME: "Well thank you G!"

G: "Yeah, he's too small to fly, but HE can POOP a RAINBOW!!!!!"


There are only about a million observations and life applications I could make about this particular quote. Mostly regarding how sometimes it seems like we can't succeed and are just making messes everywhere only to discover that it actually is a well orchestrated plan that is very beautiful-blah, blah, blah-ha! BUT, since this is my favorite quote, and obviously open to a myriad of analysies-ha, I will leave the final interpretation up to you!
