Oh, the Strides We Have Made

You know you're an English teacher when the following exchange makes you a wee bit excited:

Me: (to the class) Please sit down.
Pedro proceeds to sit in my chair.
Me: Pedro?
Pedro:  You said sit down.

Now, I know this kind of thing happens every day with countless numbers of sweet, yet ornery, fourth graders all over the world...but dude, did you notice the perfection of his answer?  "You said sit down".  Makes me tear up a little bit...ok, maybe not.
