Torn Pants

We bought Evan at least three to four pair of new jeans at the beginning of the school year, and I am so glad that we only got him the cheap ones. (Not to mention that I already threw away yet another two pairs during this school year.)

Guess what I found in the laundry? Evan said he forgot about what happened, so I told him to sit and think until he remembered sinceI knew this kid wouldn't enjoy the quiet time. And I was exactly right. A few minutes later, he came and admitted to me that was sliding all the way from the school hallway to the music room with his knees down. Just wondered where the teachers were? "Why?" I asked. "Because it's fun!!!" Oh, boy........

To make it a more "fun" and memorable event for my son, I asked him to write (Evan hates writing) what, how and when it happened; what was his punishment, how he felt about it, and his plan for the future. Johnny suggested that I should patch his pants with some kiddie or girly badges .... Somedays, I just have to learn to laugh!
