My daughter kicks cootie-coated boy butt!
Imagine this: Yesterday in a lunchroom reeking of sloppy Joe, a mohawk-wearing first-grade boy takes a poll, by show of hands.
Boy: "Put your hand up if you wish there were never ever ever ever ever (ad nauseum) any girls in the universe?"
Alyssa: "If there were no girls, there would be no boys, because girls are the mommies." (Darn straight! And don't you boys forget it.)
Boy: Imagine some unintelligible, unimportant retort, like, "nuh-uh."
Alyssa: "Besides, Benjamin Franklin said we are all created equal!"
Oh, yes she did! She quoted (well, paraphrased) Benjamin Franklin. That is my girl! I couldn't even convince high school SAT students to use quotes as evidence in their essay arguments... Look out world! (Or at least, look out second grade!)
Whoooooo! Go A!
