Today during reading class we were discussing "judgments" and "decisions." In their text book was this still from Charlie Chaplin's classic 1939 film Modern Times:
We were discussing man's role with machinery/technology and I told them a little about 1930's American life. Echoing my previous experience, one kid pipes up with "Were you there?"I was temporarily speechless then 20 other 9-year-olds jumped to my defense. "She's not that old!", "She's young!", "You never ask a woman about her age or her weight. Don't you know anything?" Then they wanted to know what my age is. I told them. I have nothing to hide.
One little boy said, "39? No way. I thought you were 27."
I now want to adopt this precious, precious child.

Aren't they cute when they are butt kissing?
TB was talking about Lincoln and then asked me if I ever had a chance to meet him while he was president. So at least they think you are only in your 80s, instead of like 150 LOL
