Aging Rapidly??

I've been supply teaching in a Gr. 4 class since Friday b/c the teacher is out on emergency leave taking care of her husband who broke an ankle on one foot and a heel on the other in a ladder accident. It's been really fun! I've really enjoyed working with this class (most of the time :) ). The little boys in the class have been educating me about comic books and have enjoyed reading to me some comics they have written themselves. Two of them have a series going titled "The Fantastic Forks" as a take off of "The Fantastic Four" (for those of you unfamiliar with comics). That made me chuckle!! haha Anyway, they have been working on a Drama and this turns out to be the week when they make the final presentation. Today was dress rehersal and tomorrow they are performing it for parents and students having 3 shows throughout the course of the day. Well, there is about 5 students in my class and about 15 students in the Gr. 5 class who are not involved in Drama and so I had them for the morning during dress rehersal (the teacher I am in for and the Gr. 5 teacher are in charge of drama). We read half a story and then they had to write their own ending. Well, this one student ended his story with the main character dying of old age at 35 and I made the comment (laughing) "I sure hope she didn't die of old age at 35!!!" Then this other kid says "Well, you're probably just saying that because you are 35!!" I was like "WHAT? Are you kidding me?!!" Not really, but in my mind I was! I sure am not 35 years old!!!! lol Ummm give or take 12 years! hahaha Oh man! You just never know what they are going to come out with! I'm not sure if that is more insulting than being told my shirt made me look pregnant one day on my student teaching by one of my Gr. 2 students or not! haha But alas, they sure do keep me entertained!

I only skimmed your post, so I hope I get my facts straight, but this is what I read: You're really 35 years old AND you're pregnant AND you're dying.

This is horrible! We'll have a healing service Tuesday night for you.
