Random Quotes from my kids

We're sitting here at the high school... I have to be here until 8 PM. Since I have no-one to keep the kids, they're here with me as well.

One of my students just came in with her mom and we chatted. This student is a lovely girl with bright red hair and a cheerful countenance. When she left, Isaac asked, "What was her name?"

"Taylor," I replied.

"That's a beautiful name," he said.

"Yes, it is," I said. "What would be a name that isn't beautiful?"

"Oh, like Chipmunk or Skunk," he said.

Martha, age ten, is not happy having to be in this place for five hours with no TV or GameCube (poor thing). She is lolling on a blanket on the floor and just now taped up a little paper sign next to her:

"Do NOT
bother trying
to sleep
And trying
to have some
PEACE"

Anybody need an insufferable little tyrant for a couple of weeks?
