The most important part about being a nanny...

One day I forgot I had a piece of chocolate in my back pocket and I put my hand in my pocket at the end of the day, and pulled out what looked like poop from my behind, and all the kids started yelling, "Ms. Straight has poop on her finger," just at the dismissal bell. They ran up the hallway screaming this, with me running behind them saying, "It's not poop!" until I reached the principal at the end of the hallway, at which time I licked the chocolate off my fingers and said, "See? I told you it wasn't poop." He shook his head as usual.
