vbs crafts
today was the first day of vacation bible school. i was given the title, "director", so i just walked around to all the classes making sure everything was going ok.
as i was walking by crafts, i recognized a very familiar varmint voice whining, "awwww, i don't like those."
to which the crafts teacher replied, "uh, sorry." {translated, too bad for you. i'm glad she said that!!! don't let him whine!} i was just about to step in the room and get on to colby when i heard him add, "but my mom uses those to spank me!"
i couldn't pass by at this point. i walked in to see what they were doing, and the teacher was passing out wooden spoons that they were using for the heads of the puppets he was making! i just started LAUGHING!
way to go, colby! just rat me out on my parenting techniques! i haven't spanked him with a wooden spoon in a really long time. i used to carry one around in my purse with the handle sticking out as a reminder to both boys what might happen. i think i actually only spanked them with it once or twice, but apparently it made quite an impression!

leave it to colby man to be the comic relief of the day!!! totally needed that giggle. at least it wasn't a belt!!! that's what my mom used and/or snapped to threaten us........
You think Spencer and Colby might need some grandma time!
LOL! Yes, anyone who knows your boys can tell how you abuse them! They are very lucky to have parents like you! It reminds me of the Pampered Chef lady who called one of their "Mix & Spreader" spatula the "Mix & Spanker". She said she used it the same way you did your wooden spoon.
