Maggie is my 8 year old niece. She has had a crush on a particular boy now for a couple of years but recently this boy was "going out" with another girl. Yes, these are second graders. I heard her talking to my 7 year old daughter about it last week:
Maggie: Hey Toad. ****** doesn’t like ****** anymore and now he likes me again!
Toad: Really?
Maggie: Yeah! He likes me again!
Toad: Well, you need to tell him it’s too late.....the Maggie Train has left the building. WHOOT WHOOT! (raising her arm up and down as if pulling a train whistle.)
Excellent bit of advice, I thought.

Where on earth did she pick that up? It's genius.
I am not sure. I think we had watched the Garfield movie around that time. I know there was a train in the movie. Somehow it must have came from that.
