One Chuckle a Day...

I thought I'd share with you a story that brought a smile to my face earlier this week. I'm sure it will bring a smile to yours as well!

On Tuesdays my last student of the day ends well after school is finished, but we start before the end of the school day so we always hear the end of the day announcements. As the principal finished saying the announcements he threw in that it was National Geographic's 121st Anniversary.That fact astounded my third grader. I thought I'd tell him about how I had visited a friend who had stacks of Magazines dating way back. I told him that I actually held a National Geographic from 1918. "You held it! How did you hold it?"

"Well, it's a magazine," I replied.

"Oh, we have the channel." he said matter-of-factly.

To this I held in my chuckle and said "ahh."
