One of the little boys says to me "Ms. Heidi, this sundae is so good I could marry it and also marry a blonde girl."
Another boy in the groups joins in and says "I want to marry a girl."
Me: "That's good, a girl like your mom maybe?"
Boy: "No, She is about to die"
Me: "Oh really"
Boy: "Yah, she is really old. My mom is almost 100 years old!"
Me: " How old is she really?"
Boy: "She's 27"
Me: "Oh your mom is young you have nothing to worry about. In fact, your mom is younger than me."
The group then goes on to ask my age. I tell them that I am 30 years old they say "Oh my goodness!" { I know so old right?!}
The third group member joins in and says: "I am never going to get married because I am going to be an Astronaut and I don't have time for a wife in space!"
That's the best story!!! When I was a camp counselor, I once had to explain to the parents of the 15 four year old boys that their sons may come home talking about what a honeymoon was. One of my campers had just come back from his family vacay in Orlando and told all of the campers that a honeymoon is "when you go to Disneyworld and lock your door and you yell at each other." Sweet thing. I guess his family's room was next to a pair of newlyweds.
