After watching two kids almost plow into me at the end of the day (on accident of course) another teacher told one of the boys to be more careful because I am pregnant. Of course, the news in that class spread quickly. The kids were very excited and told me congratulations. They actually had me laughing. One boy told me, "You don't look like you have a basketball. I won't believe it until I see that." One of my girls asked me if I wanted a boy or girl and that boys are easier so hopefully the baby is a boy. I thought her response was funny. I kept it really low key. They were excited, but after about five minutes, they went back to work. No big deal. When it was time to leave, they were much more careful around me and now they also understand why I might want a snack at the end of the day.
