Topic: this is so sweet had to share Posted: 17 June 2008 at 5:03pm |
Teacher Debbie Moon's first graders were discussing a picture of a family one little boy in the picture had a different hair color than the other members. One of her students suggested that he was adopted.
A little girl said, 'I know all about adoption, I was adopted..'
'What does it mean to be adopted?', asked another child.
'It means', said the girl, 'that you grew in your mommy's heart instead of her tummy!'

Aah sweet. This is exactly how we decided we will explain it when we were looking into adoption.
