Okay...so I've got a pretty terrible name (no offense honey)! But I must say it is fun to hear what first graders and other young kiddos at school think of it. So here are a few of my faves:
First Grader - I think your name is Whitehead because you are white and have a head.
Me - Yikes! Then I'm glad my name isn't just Mrs. White or I might not have a head.
First Grader - thinks for a minute then laughs
Kindergartener - I know your name.
Me - You do? What is it?
Kindergartener - Mrs. Whitehead!
Me - You're right! That's a pretty silly name isn't it?
Kindergartener - Yes. (and giggles)
Me - You want to know a secret?
Kindergartener - Yes.
Me - I got it from my husband.
Kindergartener - Really? What's his name?
Me - Mr. Whitehead!
Kindergartener - Now that's silly!
First Grader - I know why they call you Mrs. Whitehead.
Me - Why?
First Grader - Because you have black and white hair.
First Grader - I know why you are Mrs. Whitehead.
Me - Why?
First Grader - Come here. (pulls my head down and pulls at my part) Because your head is white under that hair.
Thank you hillarious children for at least taking a name like mine and making me laugh! :O)
