Azaria (female kindergarten student): Ms. T, do you like black babies or white babies better?
Me: Well, sweetheart, I love all babies, no difference.
Azaria: So you'd rather have a black baby than a white baby?
Me: I'd be blessed to have any healthy baby.
Azaria: Well, my sissy is gonna have a baby and momma said we got to get rid of it, so if you want it I'll let momma know...... (wide-eyed staring at me obviously waiting for a response)
Me: I'm not ready for children yet, but thank you for thinking of me.
Azaria: But aint you 26? That's old Ms. T! My momma is only 24 and she has 3 kids! You need to find a man that will give you a baby, that's a woman's job is to have the babies. Can you not find a man, is that the problem Ms. T? (again, with the wide-eyed staring)
Me: (Lord help me, please set off the fire-alarm, make a child vomit near me, something). Azaria, it's not appropriate to talk about me having babies. Let's get back to work.
...........
As I'm walking away, barely 5 feet away, I over hear my new favorite friend whisper to her neighbor....
Azaria: We needs to finds Ms T a man so he can give her the sex and she can have the baby.
Seriously, if she and my mother were put in a room together, things would happen. But for now, I'd like to (be legally allowed t0) stick one of the below items into this beautiful child's mouth.....

Oh, how I miss teaching sometimes! :-) One of my favorite comments from a student: "Ms. H, you need to go to the bar so you can find you a husband."
HAHAHA! That's too funny! I'm a new read and I just had to comment on this!
I just laughed out loud at work! Gotta love em!
HAHAHAHHAHAH. i just laughed outloud.
thanks for the entertainment!
I think I'm going to need to add the phrase "the sex" to my vocabulary...great story. :)
all I can say is wow....but I'm not surprised! The other day LB brought me lunch to school the first remark was "Coach.... has a rich man, he wears a necktie!" then it was " how many children yall have?" and when I responded "none, we are not married" they told me I was old. I told them "I am not old enough to have children" and one informed me that "her mommma was 31 (i'm 30 now) and she was 13." it never amazes me....
thanks for making me laugh with your story :) you handled yourself well!
