group consensus
I was having circle time with my kids today, and we were about to get ready to go outside for our break before lunch. I had dismissed the girls to the cloakroom (yes Wendy -- they too use the word cloak here..it's not just mom) and the boys and I were sitting in a circle. The little boy sitting next to me looked up at me, and said, "Miss Butler, do you have a brother." I answered yes, and he immediately responded with "Is he old?" I am not sure what brought this line of questioning on, but I answered that he was just a little older than I am. This discussion prompted more interest from the other boys, and from across the circle one of the little boys asked if I had a boyfriend.. thankfully the girls were coming out of the cloakroom, so I skirted the issue.. who knows where that question would lead.. and the little boy sitting next to me said " You know Miss Butler, you shouldn't have a boyfriend." I just smiled, and thought it would end at that... then he continued "Big boys are hairy." I am sure that his dad would be so proud. As I dismissed him to the cloakroom he walked away singing something about hairy men... I am not sure, but it was all I could do to keep my laughter in. Did I tell you guys... I love my class!

I think I am going to call you Miss Butler from now on. That's just cool. And that story is cute as hell.
I've heard that big boys are hairy too, is this true? I mean, I have hair on my back but doesn't every gal?
