Lets Have a Puppy Pig Party

Let’s have a puppy party!
No. Let’s have a pig party.
Let’s have a puppy pig pancake party.
YAY! The kindergarteners cheered.
 
Let’s have a wizard party.
No. Let’s have a wild party.
Can we have a wild wizard party?
No.
Why not?
Because I have a wizard, and there is nothing wild about him.
First grade.
A whole different story.
Compromise is not easily obtained now.
 
Let’s have a Scarecrow party.
That’s lame.
Let’s have a Fish party.
No one wants that!
Second graders have suddenly turned a lot more cynical.
I have no idea what is going to happen when sixth graders start to party plan,
But I doubt it will be pretty.
