I had the most "guhBUH" moment today at the end of the day, and it wasn't even with one of my current kindergartners...
One of my former students, now a 3rd grader, came to pick up his kindergarten sister. He almost made it out the door, and then spun around.
"Oh, Mr. Graham!" he exclaimed. "I almost forgot! Tell your sister 'Happy Late Birthday!' She had a birthday on the 17th!"
How did he know that my sister had a birthday a week ago....? I haven't had this student for three years....
So I posed the question to him, and he had a totally reasonable answer:
"Well, my sister's birthday is the 16th, and my birthday is the 18th, and I remembered that you had a sister with a birthday in between."
Whoa. I called my sister to tell her, and she clearly has a new favorite from among my former students.
