Little Boys!!

Tonight as we were getting L ready for bed, he found a microscopic scratch on his knee. Of course, he immediately requested a band-aid. At the time of his discovery, we were working with him on his counting. We told him as soon as were done, we would get a band aid.

Well, he was no longer interested in counting and ran out of the room. Counting is not nearly as exciting as a new Diego Band- Aid.!! All of a sudden we heard the toilet flush and his bedroom door SLAM shut. (A definite clue L was up to something.) So, J and I went to his room and L was in his bed sitting there with big eyes and a peculiar look on his face. So, we asked him did he get a band - aid. He said he did not! Well, when we started to lift up his PJ bottoms to see if the evidence was there, he quickly tried to push our hands away so we could not see it. Yep, you guessed it, underneath his pant leg was a band -aid. He got a small swat on his leg and we left the room leaving him to think about what he had done!

Shortly there after, L reappeared with a very sad look on his face and said, " I do not have the band - aid anymore. I flushed it in the toilet." J and I then talked to him about lying and that even though we may not like what he has done, he should always tell us the truth.

J tucked L back in bed and said, "Daddy, I will never lie again." How sweet! We hope he has learned his lesson, but the reality of it is, is I am sure that there will be a few more "band-aid" episodes in his little life!
