Jack just came barreling in from school with a tale of how he had "been ripped off......twice". In his usual Drama filled way he told of how at lunch he had gotten a cookie and laid it on the table so he could dispose of his tray. When he stood up his cookie was "magically gone". But he "knew" that the "evil, lying Joseph" had taken it and he was right. Joseph wouldn't give it back and "EVEN TOOK A BITE OUT OF IT" so he went to tell Ms M. Thus ended the first ripped off.
Later in the day, Ms Bruno (the Asst Principal) called him to the office. Ms M had told her about the incident and Ms Bruno gave Jack a new cookie........ it was YELLOW and GREEN!!!!! (Green Bay colors - a HATED team by Jack's team Chicago Bears) This would be the 2nd ripping off. :-)
As it took everything I had not to laugh - I did manage to get out "You didn't SAY that to Ms Bruno did you?"
"no" and he gave me the *duh* look. "And you did say thank you, correct?" I asked.
"Yeah, Mom - I'm not a jerk" :-)
Oh, he's a pip. Entertaining - yes, but still a pip. :-)
