Over Heard

School is back in session. So the kids are back in class and I am manning my post in the library. Certainly not because I'm a literary genius, I just like hanging out with the kids. Since this was my first day back in the school after the holidays, I went to the cafeteria, where I would be able to see them all.

Michael and Mina apparently were suffering from some sort of withdrawal because they HAD to be seated next to one another. While I was cruising around, catching up on all the loot that was delivered to my little friends by Santa I heard Parker, who is one of Michael's friends and was sitting on the other side of him say, "Hey Michael, how old is your sister?" Now, I'm thinking "hm, I wonder why the inquiry." Michael told him that she was five. Parker, stretches his neck to look around Michael and get a look at Mina. He then says "Huh, that's OLD!" Michael looks at him and said "Nah, not really."

I swear, they are SEVEN years old, NOT seventeen. WTF!!!! And, WHEN did five become old?

"It is the woman who chooses the man who will choose her."
