Now that Rylin is in k-4, I am lucky enough to be his classroom escort. Most days of the week I get to cart him, his Spiderman backpack and it's typically obscure contents to school. We have deep conversations revolving around Santa, submarines, letters of the day and politics. He is such a delight to converse with- his perspective youthfully refreshing and ultimately hilarious.
His comments included laughable nuggets like this:
Rylin: "So Santa wasn't here for Halloween. Why?"
Me: "Because he was making toys for the good boys and girls."
Rylin: "What the heck for...he's the boss of all those elves. They should be doing the work while Santa goes trick-or-treating. How else is he gonna get candy."
Me: ???
Me: "Aren't the trees pretty. Look at all the colors."
Rylin: "Yeah, cause I made those trees."
Me: "God made the trees Rylin."
Rylin: "Yeah, because I told him to."
Me: ???
Rylin: "I have two footballs in my backpack."
Me: "Cool. Is it show and tell today?"
Rylin: "No."
Me: "Oh. Are you learning about the letter F today?"
Rylin: "No."
Me: "Soooo...why do you have two footballs?"
Rylin: "Because one is red and that means you loose. And one is green and that means you win."
Me: ???
Rylin: "I didn't bring my jacket or backpack today. I only brought my Bi-Lo pencil."
Me: ???
Stay tuned for more of Rylin's hilarity... I'll upload some of his sketches too... He is quite the artist.
