School Graveyard

I do not intend to make this blog about Grace but she provides me with such great blog fodder! It's amazing!

Thursday when I went to pick her up, she pointed out a hole in the school yard.

Grace: See this hole, Jania (another kindergartner) said that the lunch lady that died, her body is in there.

Me: What??? Where did Jania hear this?

Grace: From the principal

Me: Really!

On Friday, the hole was filled in. I see one of the administrators and say to him, "Grace told me the cafeteria lady is buried in that hole." He just laughs. I look at him like, "please tell me she isn't". I don't know what came over me that I needed this reassurance. It was so stupid. He reassured me she was not buried there and it was a crazy thought. Embarrassed, I say, "Of course not. First it would be illegal to bury her in the school yard." Did I really just say that??? OMG! If that wasn't bad enough, I add, "And second, the hole isn't big enough to fit her.". I think he thinks I'm crazy and I think I think that too!!! What possessed me at that moment! A bunch of crazy, that's what!

I plan to get some sleep this weekend and hope the crazy totally goes away!
