A Slight Delay


“Ok, teeth are clean, let’s get you in bed.”
“I’m firsty.”
“Here’s your water.”
“I don’t want bafroom water.”
“Water’s water, drink it.”
Sigh.   “I’m not water  ‘firsty.”
 “Goodnight.”

  2. I wish I had written many of the conversations I've had with students. You captured the nuances very well.

  3. It's so simple, yet communicates so much!
