“Am I your favorite student? I’m your favorite student, right?” This is a question I get asked by one spunky third grade girl in my class almost daily.
I usually don’t answer. Or I reply, “I don’t have favorites.”
One day as we were walking out of school, she asked again. “Am I your favorite student? I’m your favorite student, right?” She always says it with this adorable face that she has mastered, being the only girl in a family of five kids.
That particular day I decided on a new response, “Let’s put it this way, Claire…When you leave third grade…I’ll cry.”
Pause…
“But tears of sadness, or tears of joy?!”
Oh, Claire…
This cracked me up! What a bright young lady. So, which one is it? 🙂
Ha! I too would like to know which one it is!
I love her response. It will be the new question for each day.
Things don’t change! I get this question in MS and I even got it from my seniors. The ones who are my favorites always know because I make sure we stay in contact for years later! I have some still harassing me about it as they deploy, move and get married. Silly kiddos or may adultos for some of mine.
Wow, is she a bright little girl! That is hysterical. 😀
What a funny little girl. I love your response to her. But I wonder why she keeps asking!
omg, dying of laughter over here.
I love this SOL challenge!
Before you even said her name, I thought to myself, “I bet that’s Claire!” She’s so fabulous!
