"Kids Sure Say the Darndest"

"God gave you my favorite smile in the world. Please use it!" -Elder Farnsie

While most of the teachers are shy around me,

the students run up--giggling--blurting out any English they know.

Mostly, it's just:

"Hello!"

But, sometimes, it's:

"You are so cute!"

&

"You are beautiful!"

&

"I love you!"

&

"I want to take you home!"

{Actually, that one was in Japanese.}

And then, my favorite:

"You are so Caucasian."

Uh oh, they're on to me...

And then, today, we practiced American Tongue Twisters.

I had students stand and recite one Tongue Twister of my choosing.

Group Three had: "A Big Black Bug Bit a Big Brown Bear"

What came out was: "A Big Black Butt Bit a Big Brown Bear"

I love my students.
