Mooooooooommmmm!

While teaching a reading group a story today, I had one of my first motherly experiences...

Boys: playing with their pencils and erasers on the table

Me: "Boys, please put down your pencils and concentrate on the reading...we won't need them yet."

Boys: look annoyed but ignoring me

Me: begin taking away pencils starting from student T

Student T: Moooooooommmmmmmmmmm... (whining tone)

Me: I think your mom is at home. (proceeding with my pencil-taking consequence, wide-eyed)


In reflection: do I even look old enough to be a mother?!? teacher = mother?!?
