Sh*t Sixth Graders Say...

Girl: Ms. Y, St. Patrick is a real person?

Me: Yes, St. Patrick is a saint, we celebrate him on March 17th.

Girl: Oh I always just thought he was a Leper.

Girl: Is the Surgeon General Real?

Boy: No, dumby. It's a commercial.

-----

Girl: I'm tired. 

Me: Why are you so tired?

Girl: Because I had lotsa dreams last night. And when you dream you watch them and you don't sleep. It's like TV. But scarier.

Girl: He's white like Michael Jackson, except Michael Jackson Cloroxed his skin.

Boy:  I can't believe you just said that. Michael Jackson had a disease and that's why he looked like that.

(During a game to review historical females for Women's History Month:)

Teacher: This woman was the first female African-American Secretary of State.

Girl: CoCo Chanel!

And this is why I come home every day overly exhausted yet questionably happy.
