This is the one with a funny kid story.



I work with kids.  And I witness kids doing the craziest things all the time.  This really happened:

I’m sitting in the room watching children do a lego-building project.  Out of the corner of my eye I see two five-year-olds fighting over blocks.  One of the kids was a female named Addie, and the male’s name was Santiago.  Addie is African American, and Santiago is Hispanic.

It was a pretty minor fight, and I knew that both of the kids were mild-mannered so I wanted them to work their beef out on their own.  After a few minutes, Addie decided that she was going to come get an adult to help (she’s kind of a tattle tale).  She ran up to me to tell me about the fight with Santiago and said, “Mr. Mike, Cinco De Mayo took a lego from me and won’t give it back.”

After laughing about the Cinco De Mayo stuff, I helped her find another similar lego.

Classic!
