Making miracles

A little girl came into my office complaining that she had hurt herself outside:

"Where does it hurt now?"

"It hurts my tummy when I go like this [flaps arms frantically]."

"It hurts when you go like this? [flapping frantically]"

"Yes it hurts right here [points at stomach]."

"Okay, then don't do that."

 

She ran out of my office as though she'd just discovered electricity. Problem solved!

 

On a very different note, I was driving between schools and as I was nearing my middle school, passed by a church where a funeral or memorial service had clearly just ended. The area was crawling with unmarked (but obvious) police vehicles. Cool.
