Short Story

At Care Haven we are working on the forms of "to be" and "to have" in sentence structure. To practice our listening I would read a sentence out-loud and they would have to fill in the blank. One of the sentences said "I ____ blue eyes." Idrus then looked at me really hard and in all seriousness said, "Really?!" We all then started looking at one anothers eyes and determined mine are brown, Idrus's are black, Edward's are black, and Nelwe's are light black with a hint of brown. After this short discussion Idrus and Nelwe both burst out laughing. As the rest of us looked at them in confusion Idrus managed to get out, between fits of giggles, "Teacher, I blue eye!" as he pretends to hit himself in the eye. Oh, the joy of crazy moods and crazy times!
