You can't pull the wool over a super powered investigator's eyes

This Monday I was picking up the kids from school. While I was in line to pick them up an unspecified child of mine asked another un-named child of mine "how was your day?"

Well, the questioned child apparently didn't have a very good day, was offended and gave the sibling a knuckle sandwich in the mouth causing a minor flesh wound. The attendant came up to me and said "these two were fighting in line. I told them no matter how they behave at home, we don't fight at school." I was thinking in my head "Right, because we encourage them to punch each other. And they do this all the time" I politely said "they don't do this at home they must have had a hard day at school to do something like this."

And now the rest of the story......

Later in the afternoon super-daddy-investigator-man broke down the instigator and found out it wasn't as innocent a question as originally told. They actually said "how was your day, boogerface?"

I'm pretty sure we wont hear that phrase at our house again.

Hilarious! Wow, now that Ethan's in preschool I'm learning how much fun it is to be judged by his teachers. You've really got to stop letting your kids to this sort of stuff, you guys. :)

So funny! The statement from the teacher is ridiculous. You guys are such a rough family and all.....

The definition of Sibling love: Genuine concern mixed with a little bit of "gotcha". To bad the teacher didn't add the Boogerface at the end of her comment and YOU could've popped her one:)seeing how you teach it at home. Hilarious

LOL! Yeah, we know that your super powered investigator teaches them those moves, boogerface! Seriously, sometimes I want to ask people if they are aware of what they just said!
