In this story, a second-grade teacher talks about a famously funny show-and-tell event. With fifteen years of experience as a teacher, she remembers this event as the most memorable.
The class was amazed as Erica did a duck walk and groaned to show how hard her mum worked. She talked about how her dad called the “middle wife,” a strange woman whose car didn’t have a sign on it.
“Psshhheew!” the water broke as Erica acted out her mum lying down and the middle wife telling her to “push, push” and “breathe, breathe.”
The most exciting part was when Erica told everyone that Luke was coming in covered in “yucky stuff” from her mom’s “play-center.”
The middle wife spanked Luke for moving into the womb, which was the last touch. Erica did a big bow, and the teacher cheered loudly.
This funny and touching story shows how creative and innocent Erica is. The teacher now brings her camera to show-and-tell in the hopes of getting another “Middle Wife” moment on tape.
