While we were very happy for his success, the reward he received made my life this afternoon h-e-l-l.

| Oh, COME ON!! |

| This would be Henry falling OUT in protest. |

| Look at both of them! It's kinda funny, isn't it? Until I got sick of hearing all that nonsense. |
James was actually kind enough to share that massive lollipop with BOTH of the little boys but of course, it wasn't enough time... enough licks... enough chomps. And then James was mad that Henry licked off part of the color.
And then, well, you can probably guess what happened next. The lollipop went away. I congratulated James again for his success, told him how much I appreciated him sharing his special treat, told the little boys to GETOVERIT, and then tossed the pop, all while shaking my head. Doesn't that woman have two little children of her own? Who gives a circus-sized lollipop to one child and then sends him home to show it to his two younger brothers??
I may have to re-think my Christmas gift for his teacher. ;-)
Perhaps a stash of smaller pops in sets of two, three, and four would be appropriate?
ReplyDeleteOr maybe an audio recording of the thirty minutes or so you had to endure this parental torture?
Ahhahaaha. those photos are hysterical! But seriously, that huge lollipop? Right after Halloween too? come on.... You could tell that teacher that that is a no-go at your house. I love your blog :)
ReplyDeleteSo funny! I'm impressed that he shared his prize. :-) I'm sure James' teacher thought she had provided a fun prize and it would be great incentive for the others in the class. Wonder what he'll win for the subtraction test?
