They're Growing Up
OK, guys, we have read for an hour and we have three hours left. That means I can play with each of you for an hour-Abby then Timmy then Emma - alright? ....Mrs. Challies, Abby and I will play together. We are going to share our game...Alright, Emma. What are we going to play? We will play American Girl. I am Mrs. Cole. My children are Elizabeth, who is ten, Annabelle - a very prissy girl - who is sixteen, David, and Bitty Baby, who is four...Alright, what about you, Abby? I am Mrs. Merriman. My daughter is Felicity and she is nine.... OK, and who am I?...Your name is Mrs. Potter. You are our friend....Am I old?...No, you are just the age you are now (!!!)...Alright....Knock, knock, knock. Oh, hello, Mrs. Cole. Do come in and have some tea. How are your hens doing this year? What about your corn? Is it growing well?...Oh, Mrs. Potter, I am so worried about Elizabeth. She just doesn't seem well...I am so sorry! What seems to be wrong? Is she ill?...It is bad, Mrs. Potter. I think she is doing doggy germs...What?...I think Elizabeth might be doing doggy germs...What?...Oh, you don't know what doggy germs are. You know when people kiss before they are married? Well, they shouldn't, should they?...It would be good if they didn't...Well, Mama and Daddy say they are doing doggy germs when they kiss- you know, like this...(Demonstration by Abby and Emma)...Elizabeth is engaged to Joseph, but he is a good boy. I don't think he would do doggy germs...Well, who would it be? ...Well, you know how some boys make girls do doggy germs? I think it might be Bonnie Prince Charlie. (I know he didn't really live in America in the 1700's, but we just pretend he did)...Well, from what I know about Bonnie Prince Charlie, he could have done doggy germs with Elizabeth. I am so sorry, Mrs. Cole. Do let me know how things turn out...

Oh my goodness mom! I was laughing the whole way through this and then I got to the doggy germs part and that just sent the laughter to a whole other level! What are Tom and Jeannette teaching those children?!!!!;)
Um?? How very.... bizarre? I have to say (this is private right? otherwise please delete the comment) but how very home schoolish!
I'm sure the children's comments were their interpretation of something their parents had said. I remember Susanna's kindergarten teacher saying, "I will believe half of what I hear about you, if you believe half of what you hear about me"...That was the fun of it all....
Doing doggy germs...hahahahaha
