This is what happens when they see you in high school...

My desktop picture is a photo of my dad and I when I was in high school. This photo:

When I was opening up iTunes, the questions about this photo drew some interesting questions/statements from my classes. They included "Is that your husband?", and "Wow, Miss. You were really small." Mr. Schindler's 2nd period sophomores said, in response to hearing those comments: "I thought you were like 40, so I can see why they thought you were married."

My responses? "No, that's my dad, but he does look pretty young", "Um, thanks", and "What? You just told me I look 40? Thanks."

I think I'll photoshop a picture of Taylor Lautner and put me in it, and then put that as my background. I wonder what their responses will be then...

Has anyone else heard some ridiculous guesses/comments about age come out of your students' mouths? I'd love to hear some more.
