This week I have gotten a few new students in my classroom. One of the new little girls is from China. I sat down to test her on a few things today and she saw a picture of one of my friends' little girls. The conversation went a little like this...
Little Girl: Is that your daughter?
Me: Nope, I don't have any kids. It's one of my friends' daughters.
Little Girl: Why not? You almost 30!!
Me: I'm not having any kids until I get married.
Little Girl: You almost 30 and YOU"RE NOT MARRIED?
Me: Nope
Little Girl: Why not?
Me: I guess I just haven't found the right guy yet.
Little Girl: You need find boy!!
Yes, thank you I do honey...just how do you propose I do that?? Oh and thank you for pointing out the fact, ever so plainly that I'm almost 30 on top of it all...Really appreciate that!
Kids and their total honesty. This whole conversation makes me wonder what single girls in their 30s get treated like in China. Are they looked down upon?? Just another reason I'm thankful to live in America!! Thank you Lord!!
