STUDENT #2: Spaniard? Isn't that a type of dog?

ME (dryly): I think the word you're looking for is Spaniel.
 
A father and a son are in an elevator, when the son asks the father something.

"No!" the father replies.

This happens several times in the same elevator.
When the son asks for the tenth time, the father explodes and says "NO! WE CAN'T GO UP TO TO THE TOP FLOOR THE WAY SUPERMAN DOES IT!"

I am sure as mothers and fathers we all have had moments where our kids have said the darndest things. But teachers, I am sure, get to hear and read the most of the darndest that kids say. I wish I had kept a journal of my kids and the darndest things they came up with. Glad you all enjoyed it and hope it brought back some memories of your own families.
