Working with children we hear the darndest things:
A teacher in my school shared this: "Last week, two of my students were speaking Spanish during class time. Not a big deal, but I asked them to speak English during the activity that we were doing. At lunch yesterday, one of these students was coughing and I thought he might be chocking. I asked him is if was ok and he said that he was and that he was just coughing in Spanish. He doesn't cough in English."
In Class: Holding a preschoolers hand ready to take him to the bathroom I announced to the rest of the staff in the room I was taking.......For the life of me his named escaped my brain. Making another attempt, I said: I'm taking...............I have..........finally the little boy whose hand I was holding finished my sentence and replied, "Me"
Buckling the children on the bus (during Christmas time): One of the para's was buckling a child in his seat when he noticed her Christmas sweater decorated with stars, stockings, trees, and snowflakes. He asked her if tomorrow they could make cookies like her sweater.
It's why I do what I do!
