My daughter has to wear tennis shoes to school on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. She has P.E. They alternate gym class with music class. So as we are walking home from the bus stop I ask her, "How was gym?" She stops walking turns to me and says "Who is Jim?" I thought that was so cute. This was her second day of classes. And so I explained about gym(P.E.). Turns out she had music today. Have any of your kids said anything cute lately?

That is so adorable! I love it when little kids such cute things! I am not sure why they ever started calling it gym class.. When it is P.E. class. Anyone know?

Could be because most of the time P.E. class is held in the GYMnasium. Makes a bit of sense to me.

I have not recorded my sons's sayings when they were younger except they did think that the Sesame characters were real. But I remember when I first went to school, and I thought Gymnasium was named for a guy called Jim and that he was the one who thought up the idea of physical fitness. Now when I go married, I was going through issues because of my past and much of what I did, I forget about it. When there is something traumatic, I tend to block it out. Oh I do remember one thing, my sons were watching a tv show, one where the kids were brainy and the crooks were dumb and they were talking about a couple of criminals going into a place with explosives, there was not any sound, just the music and then my younger son speaks for one of the criminals and says "Got a match?" and they were both on the floor laughing their heads off.

Oh, that is so funny! I am sure my kids have said something funny lately, but I can't recall any right now. My son only has GYM class a few times a week too. They alternate GYM, ART, and MUSIC.

My daughter says cute things all the time. Then again we have a running gag, a make believe sort of game we play. Goblins being good and virtuous try to keep kids out of trouble while goblins being mean and nasty try to get them to misbehave. So, sometimes we pretend to be, for example, the Goblin-of-not-Listening or the Goblin-that-talks-too-loud. The Gnome-of-listens-well or Gnome-of-talks-nicely then is expected to show up and correct the bad gnome's behavior. Anyway, with these sort of play games, she says cute stuff all the time. :)
