So rich…
Girl 1: I have a piggy bank with money in it.
Girl 2: Well, I checked my piggy bank. I have more money than anyone in the world.
Can I have some help with my student loans??

In a class book entitled “I am Thankful For…”…
A little girl draws a very elaborate picture. She says she is finished and wants me to write the words for her. She says:
“I am thankful for the stars because they shine on the world so no zombies come.”
Thank goodness for stars.
