The Young Male Mind

This past Friday, 
a fifth grader reading the morning announcements said,
"...and a happy weekend birthday to Mrs. Shaffner."  
My first graders perked up and smiled at me.  
A bit later, we were finishing the weekly spelling test.  
When the kids finish, 
they turn their papers to the back 
and begin drawing a picture.  
As I passed the green table, 
I noticed Megan was drawing a birthday cake, 
Alexis was drawing a person wearing our classroom birthday hat, 
Alayna was drawing a birthday cake, 
...and Joel was drawing a detonator connected to TNT.
