Yesterday was parent teacher conference time at the elementary school and my conferences were the first ones scheduled for the day. When we arrived we were the only ones walking up to the school and things were pretty quiet in the neighborhood.
They're doing construction on the building so there's a fence right by the parking lot. The fence has black plastic on the inside, presumably to prevent building materials from flying out and hitting the cars. The fence is about seven feet tall, so none of us can see over it.
As we walk by the fence Christopher asks me what's on the other side.
I tell him that people are building the new school.
He says, "Can you lift me up?"
Instead of answering him I bust out, full volume with, "YOU LIFT ME UP!" to the tune of You Raise Me Up. (go to 3:19 for the full effect)
And then what sounds like eight or ten construction workers all bust out laughing from the other side of the fence.
Thank you, I'm here all week.
