things kids say

walking to school in the mornings is oh so cold, will someone please remind me next time I am out to buy another pair of mittens, can never find mine when I need them...
the one good thing about mornings is you get good conversation from an 11 year old...
her: it was so hard being me yesterday
me: ummm, why?
her: everyone was so glad to see me back (from being out all week sick) that ALL of the... girls were crowded around me
me: that is a good thing, right?
her: well, yeah
me: so, what was the problem?
her: there were so many girls, cause even the girls that are mean to me were glad to see me back...
me: (we had a little talk about how she better not ever be one of those mean girls and believe me they can be mean in 5th grade...)
her: no grandma, I never would be, I didn't even get to eat all of my food...
me: why?
her: cause I did not want anyone to feel bad that I was not paying attention to them, so I tried to space my time out for each person...even the mean girls got as much attention as my friends...
me: you are a good girl
