Reindeer Excrement

Oh Art, you were so right when you told me that kids say the darnedest things! In second grade we are currently learning about Arctic animals. Life cycles, migration patterns, habitat and what have you. (Ethel, that was for you.) We were watching a video about Caribou and we were lucky to witness the miracle of birth.. Without much fanfare or description the baby just fell out, laid there a bit and then stood up. I stepped out of the room for a minute and when I came back a darling seven year old girl exclaimed to me. "Mrs. Kirkpatrick, A reindeer just pooped out another reindeer and it came back to life!!!!!" Second grade is my favorite age.
