when a child gives you lemons
...make lemonade?


one of my favourite parts about working at the elementary school

is when kids say really really funny things... unintentionally.

one of the things i do at the school is lead rhyming groups with grade ones.
today, i told a group that i was really impressed
with the progress that they had made since september.

one kid nodded in agreement,
"i know. because now i can rhyme anything!
like sell rhymes with..."
he paused.
"lemon!"

he was so gosh darn proud of himself,
i hated correcting him.

apparently i'm really good at teaching rhyming...
