Cinderella

This whole week at school we have had major numbers of kids who are absent. As usual, we periodically take Lysol wipes to the tables and chairs to "clean up" and get rid of some of the germs. After a week we had, today was that kind of day. We set to wiping down our own chairs, tables, easel markers, doorknobs, etc... This is the conversation from two of my girls I overhear as I walked around the room

"Wiping down all these chairs makes me feel just like Cinderella.......except Mrs. Eckenrode is not a mean stepmother."

"Yanno, not all stepmothers are mean. Mine is actually quite nice!"
