AMERICUS — Children do say the darndest things-Bill Cosby had it right with his television show. You never know what might come out of the mouths of these ‘babes’. A group of students at Sumter Primary School got together recently to discuss the upcoming holiday and what they like and dislike about it.
Tynasia Grimes said, “Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays.”
Jared Phillips said, “I like it because we get to eat turkey and ham.”
“And it is not hard to cook,” said James Brittain, “you buy turkey from the meat store, and put it in oven and cook it.”
“I like to eat turkey, corn, pumpkin pie and gravy,” said Eric Monts.
Rudy Reyes said, “Pumpkin pie and mashed potatoes are my favorite.”
Harley Stanley said, “I am thankful for my family.”
“Me too, I am thankful for my family,” said Kabron Little.
JaLeciya Freeman said, “I am thankful for my family.”
Colby Felton said, “I am thankful for my parents.”
“I am thankful for Mrs. Hill and Miss Salmon and Santa,” said Wes Sewell.
“I am thankful for the library and for books,” said Tykell Ferrell.
“I am thankful for everything except for being mean,” said Nicholas Fross.
Victoria Dukes said, “I am thankful for my teacher, my mom and daddy.”
