Call me crazy...

I am recording this  moment for when I need a good laugh.  THIS is why I love my job.
After a long day of herding cattle (a.k.a. taking my 2nd graders to the museum) we were on the bus and this conversation occurred between me and two students (we'll call them G and B)

G:  Hey Ms. A, do you loooove apples?
Me: You know I do.
G: So why don't you marry them?
Me: Ok.  I will.  Saturday.  In fact when I come to school on Monday, you'll have to start calling me Mrs. Apple.
B:  Ms. A that would be weird.  You watch a movie together and ______ (B makes pretends to be an apple completely motionless with a goofy face) , at dinner ______ (makes the face again), when the baby is born ______ (makes face again).
We all are cracking up.  B proceeds to share countless ways an apple could be a boring husband.
B: Ms. A, I'm not sure an apple will make a good husband.
G:  So, Ms. A, do you looooove carrots?
Me: You know I do.
G: So why don't you marry them?
Me: I can't.
G: Why not?
Me:  Cause I'm marrying the apple.
G: Oh.

And this is why I love teaching.  In no other profession could this conversation ever take place.
