So true. I seriously didn't expect this from the article I'm reading. I mean, it's interesting and I actually like reading it. biggrin Odd huh?

But this one passage in the article, about teachers telling these stories they've experienced and heard when they were around children, made me smile and laugh out loud. xd It's just so darn cute.

'Quality Begins With Us' Article by Pauline Davey Zeece

Exchange 3/95-75,76

'I recall the first time I ever heard children discussing the concept of zits in a group setting. Two little girls, ages three and four, were sitting at the lunch table with me. The older (and of course much wiser) child asked her friend with a great amount of seriousness, "Do you know what zits are?"
The younger peer thought awhile, obviously struggling with the concept. She retorted in almost a whisper, "I do not know what those zits are!" Her friend presses her and chided en-thusiastically, "Oh yes you do know. Zits, zits, zits. Those round, puffy things - that your dad squeezes for your mom." With this information, the younger child's face lit up and she broke into a smile and shouted, "I got it - you mean breasts!"'

A passage in the article...oh my...I laughed so hard. heart
