A mum was left in stitches as her son's teacher took her to one side after class to reveal the five-year-old's first ever written sentence was "I like wine".<\/p>\n
Kirsty Jordan-Smith's heart skipped a beat last month when Finlay's schoolteacher pulled her to one side as she worried the "boisterous" tot had caused chaos in the classroom.<\/p>\n
But the 39-year-old was left stunned as his teacher showed off clever Finlay's first written sentence, scrawled on an electronic tablet.<\/p>\n
Psychology student Kirsty was speechless and questioned where her son had heard the word as she doesn't drink wine herself.<\/p>\n
Now the mum-of-two has vowed to stash the work away for when her youngest child is older.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Kirsty, from Yeovil, Somerset, said: "He's a little character. I have no idea where he's got it from \u2013 I've not a clue.<\/p>\n
"His teacher called me over in front of all the other parents and my first thought was maybe he'd done something because he's quite boisterous. When you get 'can I just have a word', you cringe.<\/p>\n
"She held out a tablet to me and showed me an online log. She showed me the photo and said 'this is Finlay's first sentence \u2013 are you proud?'<\/p>\n
"I fell about laughing. It was hilarious that this was the very first thing that he ever wrote down as a full sentence on paper.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"He wrote it completely unaided and he spelt it perfectly. It's a total mystery.<\/p>\n
"The teacher said she talked about things they might like, like animals or hot chocolate. She had no idea where it came from and it made her laugh so much."<\/p>\n
She went on: "The funny part is I don't drink wine. I do have a drink but I usually drink vodka and cokes. Neither of us does \u2013 my husband's a rum drinker and I like a vodka."<\/p>\n
Finlay had already given his mum an entertaining insight into his school life by declaring he had tied the knot twice in a day.<\/p>\n
Kirsty said: "Finlay started reception in September. He was not keen on the idea of going to school so I was a little nervous about how he'd get on, but he's taken to it like a duck to water.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"Now he adores the school, he adores his teacher and he's gone from not wanting to go at all to sitting at home reading and writing.<\/p>\n
"On his first day of school, I asked him how it went and he replied 'yeah, it was alright. I married two girls'. I cracked up laughing.<\/p>\n
"He married two girls on his first day of school. I've already met my in-laws \u2013 both sets are nice.<\/p>\n
"He'll be a bit of a legend around school \u2013 he already is."<\/p>\n
The cheeky tot has now left his parents bemused as he appears to be a sommelier in the making.<\/p>\n
His mum said: "When I got home I said 'Finlay, do you know what wine is?' He said no. Neither of us drinks very often so it's not like he sees bottles and labels around.<\/p>\n
"I told him it's alcohol and he giggled \u2013 he was mortified. He knows he's not allowed to drink it."<\/p>\n
