My daughter Kalee, graduated with her elementary education degree in May '08. She subbed yesterday for a special ed class in town. I called her yesterday to check on her and see how her day went.
me: "How did it go?"
Kalee: "It was fine."
M: "Just Fine?"
K: "Yeah. It makes me glad to know there are worse behaved kids than Grayson."
M: Heh heh "What happened?"
K: " We have a precious little girl with Down's syndrome in there that is a little toot. I told her to sit down while we passed out snacks and she said, 'Puck you' to me.
M: "What?!"
K: " Yeah, I looked over at the aide and was like, 'Did she just say what I think she said?" and she just slowly nodded her head finding no amusement in it."
M: "OMG! What did you do?"
K: " I just sat her down and gave her a puzzle with animals on it to bide me time to get the snacks passed out and to get her mind on something else."
M: "Well that was smart."
K: " No, not really. She just said, 'Puck you, duck. Puck you, dog. Puck you, cat, the whole time she put it together. It didn't work. And it was a 10 piece puzzle."
I would have subbed for free for that!!!

Wow. To my great shame, I know that I have dropped the F bomb in front of my children, I hope they don't pick up on it as this child obviously did.

Hey, Jill! PUCK YOU!

HOly PUCK! That was pucking funny!!!
Boys and girls, what rhymes with duck???
When I realized that puck was one of my kids essential vocab words, I figured it was time to wash MY mouth out with soap!
Too funny!
K: "Yeah. It makes me glad to know there are worse behaved kids than Grayson."
...i say those exact words, myself.
kaylee sounds like she has been blessed with the patience of job. it will serve her well!
My 2 yr old is say "oh crap" a lot now.
Love it! Me, too...I would actually love to be in that class!
What's a little pucking? Gee!
You should be and I know you are, so proud of your daughter!!
My aunt would make my brother say fire truck, because he couldn't pronounce his 'tr's", they were substituted with his f's! Too funny!
LMpuckingAO!!!!!
ahhhh yes always some good stories from subbing...loved it
Now that is pucking funny!
I could never be a teacher. Don't have nearly enough patience. Perhaps that's why I only had one child...
LOL that made my day!
Gonna look at hockey a whole new way now, aren't you? Pucking hilarious!
Doh!
I can't wait till Chris calls me back now so I can say "Puck You!!"
LOL oh no! This is too funny b/c yesterday I blogged about how my youngest (who is only 2) said her first swear word. Thanks to me, it was an F-bomb *sigh*
I would have got her another puzzle!
That's a cute story. She should start a journal and write in it about each day she subs...it will give her some laughs later on.
Years ago I was a teachers aide in a 3rd grade class. I decided then, they don't pay teachers enough money!!!
Ahahahahaha...love that!
Puck you, Jilldo! :::smooch:::
To that last sentence... yeah, me too! HA!

I've never heard of Martini Mom. Hmm.
Does she REALLY want to teach? I wish she'd talked to me first.
And, at the dinner remind me of the kid in sped at my school. LOVE puck you.
Out of the mouths of babes. I'm sure that one caught her by surprise. Maybe she has a bit of Tourette's too?

I guess the stretch (stress) of life is getting to her pucking mom! That must be where she learned it from! too funny!
That's too funny.
Doesn't it drive you MAD to go to someone's blog and end up being number 80 in the comments section? Well I get madder than hell when I'm number 32. Yep. And on a good day I have 12!
holy crap in a cathedral, you're getting on my last nerve now.
LMAS that is so funny. I dont think I would have been able to keep a straight face or not burst with laughter. Puck you....LOL
Puck! When did you get 112 followers?
That was funny!
Whew for a second I thought that was my kid but then I read girl and was relieved.
Oh and you were in my dream last night. I'll email you the story. HEHE
I subbed yesterday too. My day was puckless. I am so glad.
Awesome. Looks like her education is just beginning! :)
I just spit my water onto my keyboard! That is the most fricking funny thing I've ever read! :D
Oh, what a funny day! I would have had a hard time not laughing out loud.
I could never be a teacher and/or sub - my poker face totally sucks.
Or is that pucks?
That is hilarious! My cousin called me a "pucker" once:)
Out of the mouth of babes!
stop by and see where YOU live...and your sis too
♥ you
oh, just the first of many...molding the minds of tomorrows youth!
Found your site from "Ritch in Love!"
Love the story of your Daughter's day! What a hoot!
Oh my goodness, that is too funny!! Subbing can be a trip and when you leave you are soooo glad you do not have them everyday.
I used to teach in the DFW (after subbing for 2 years because I could not find a job--damn coaches) and 1 year I had a kid in a wheelchair. At least 2 days a week he would come in and I would ask if he was having a good day. He would respond with a hearty "f... you", flash both hands, and roll out. Usually in the first 5 minutes. AWESOME!
Oh my goodness. Your poor daughter. The world of a teacher.
LOL that's going to be my new phrase
"puck you!"
"you pucking puckener!"
That is awesome--nothing that funny ever happened to me when I was subbing---just scary stuff.
