"The Foolish Man"

i dont know how i didnt make this the top of my priority list the other day. it may be one of the funniest stories this year. (remember all names have been changed to protect the innocent.)


"ms. c! johnny is being a foolish man."

"a what?"

"a foolish man."
(obviously this isnt normaly in a 4yr olds vocabulary so we were having trouble figuring out what she was saying and if she even knew what it meant.)

"and how is johnny being a foolish man?"

"well, he wasnt sharing the ball and i wanted to play with it and the bible says if you arent being nice then youre being a foolish man."



how are you supposed to react to that. what is the proper response besides an open mouth stare. after we overcame the initial shock factor we told her yes, that is correct, he is not being very nice. but rather than complaining about wanting the ball or whatever johnny had, she just smiled and walked away. ah kids. and their wisdom.
