For all of you in education, with sons, grandsons, or who

just love the things little kids say ~ a reminder that adult

words are often taken literally.....



"Circumcised" (this is priceless!)



A teacher noticed that a little boy at the back of the class

was squirming around, scratching his crotch, and not paying

attention.



She went back to find out what was going on.



He was quite embarrassed and whispered that he had just

recently been circumcised and he was quite itchy.



The teacher told him to go down to the principal's office.

He was to telephone his mother and ask her what he should do

about it.



He did and returned to his class.



Suddenly, there was a commotion at the back of the room.



She went back to i nvestigate only to find him sitting at

his desk with his "private part" hanging out.



"I thought
I told you to call your mom!" she said.

"I did," he said, "And she told me that if I could stick it
out till noon, she'd come and pick me up from school."
