As part of our poetry writing unit, we introduced the kids to limerick poems. 

Kid: “I’m not sure I like limerick poems as much as I like other kinds of poetry.”

Me: “Ok, well I like your honesty. And I’m actually impressed that you have such a strong literary opinion.”

Kid: “Yeah, I mean limerick poems are fun to write, I guess, but I really prefer to have more of a challenge.”

Ok, nope. Now you’re annoying.
