I Am Drawing My Wedding Cake

Some people lose their eyes. Spiders fall from the sky. I ate a green hotdog once. My grandma’s dog poops green. A giggle. Two of them look to see if I am listening. I pretend I am not. That’s gross! Oooh! Yuck! One falls off of his chair. Two laugh. I am drawing my wedding cake. I am drawing MY wedding cake! They kill everything in the world including animals. First grade conversation as they draw in art class.

Love those first-graders. They can be sooo gross and soooo innocent at the same time. And, why would "My grandma's dog poops green" suddenly spring into a first-grader's mind? I don't know! But, I love first-graders!
