On the way to school, Scout, Navy and I were having a fun time. We were cracking jokes, and laughing the whole way. As we pulled up to school, right before Scout got out, I cracked a joke, and he got out and jokingly called me an idiot. Unfortunately, “idiot” isn’t on our approved list of words to call your mom.
No big deal — a quick assignment of 40 sentences has him turned around.
The great news, is that Scout new it was something to laugh about. And that he got himself into hot water. And he was a really good sport, because just days before I had told the kids that any “garbage can words” get assigned sentences. He knew it the second he said it, and took the punishment like a man.
