Yesterday as I went to pick up Evan, one of Evan’s pre-school teachers said she had to tell me a funny story. Apparently the kids were learning a song that involved a row boat and rowing motions (not row row row your boat…). As the kids were doing the rowing motions – the teacher noticed Evan was not doing the motions so she asked him why he was not doing them. Even replied:
“I am not rowing because my boat is not a row boat it’s a motor boat!”
The teacher said she and the other teachers could not help but to laugh at his comment – as did I when I heard it.
This is similar to another great Evan comment a week or so ago when I dropped him off wearing his brand new yellow sneakers. The teacher told Evan “man I cannot see your feet!” (thinking that they could definitely not see Evan’s feet in general (in his shoes) because his shoes were so bright). Evan replied:
“That’s because they are in my shoes!”
These comments sound exactly like something I would say as a child! He is quick – and will surely give me a run for my money. Good thing I have been waiting to meet my match 😉
