We absolutely loved your kangaroo Joey patch video when you were like twerking and doing Karate kicks and all kinds of things. Yeah your kids like that is that I did because we went shopping and there was a there was a big kangaroo and they all started saying look at my Joey look at my Joey but I hadn't shown them the video. So I was my mum had some answering to do because was their Nanny had showed them on the babysitting night. Oh my God, they watched it like a hundred and fifty times on her phone. I cannot wait to meet your mom can't wait can't wait. So we are so excited and a lot of our teachers are just thrilled that you're coming. They're flying Here There and Everywhere to get to one of your four shows here and it's going to be incredible. Yes. Yes. Yes speaking of the shows the shows going to be funny. Shall we get into our Friday Funnies? Let's do it. Yes good, sir. So I was thinking I was thinking a lot about things that have happened in the classroom and obviously kids never fail to make the funny moments, but I have some really good ones of when I was a kid and this one I think you will like so, you know every once in a while a teacher will say well like put you in groups and the good kids get to go in the hallway to work because you know, you can trust them. Yes, right. So I was always a really good kid like I was naughty but I never got caught so like in the perception of adult that was always a really good kid, but I would always stir the pot up and I had no problem doing that. So when I got I was always the one who is allowed to go into the hallway and work and I remember one time specifically. I think we had broccoli for lunch or something. That would make me like really gassy and I remember feeling I remember feeling like extra gas CMS moment and I was In the hallway to do a spelling test correction with my partner and I remember this thinking in my head. I'm going to fart and I'm going to fart right now and I would like well after you fart blame it on her and she'll never know. It's you so instead so instead of farting and blaming it on her. I was so caught up in my own thoughts that I this is what happened. I said I can't Believe you did that then I farted. Your plan did not go to plan. I know and I felt so bad and then she kept trying to be like no it was you but I was like I was like if you can do this you can totally convinced her that was her. So I kept trying and trying and trying it didn't work in my favor that time. You know what it actually is a really good teaching moment to because I'm 31 years old and I have not forgotten it right. I have not forgotten. It and I would always look at my students when they would do weird stuff and they you know, he's have students who like fart and circle time and they get really embarrassed stuff and I would always remember. Wow, that was a really embarrassing moment for you. Like I still remember it's still deeply ingrained in you and they have those moments to and you always forget about how they just like every little thing you say or do could be that moment for the those kids. So whenever they would do something like that that was like embarrassing but funny. I was always emphasize the funny but in a way That was like this happens to everyone. This is a great moment. Like we're all having fun together and not in like a kind of sending way. You know what I mean? So it's kind of like her like came back to my life and teaching and I loved it. I loved it. I think that's gorgeous. You're so you're so empathetic and you're right like the little kids are not in control of their bodies and it must be stressful for them. I think like I know my son who's no I won't say which one it is actually, but he got into the car the other day and he let out a big Fart and I said, why did you do that just then and he goes because I've made a rule for myself to never fight at school because you can never trust a fart. You can never trust it's not going to turn into something else. Well, we have a word for that here. I think you guys might to this a shot. I'm sorry. Yeah, we're not Lost in Translation this time. Well, you came through you made me laugh. You know, I love a good fart story. I'm a mum of lots of kids and we love a fart story or two. So thank you for sharing that today.
