Ethans attention span is not the best at school and he seems to be getting in more and more trouble this year from being distracted, lack of paying attention to the teacher, or failing to follow directions. So today I told him that if he didn't get his initials on the board, he would get a surprise after school.
Low and behold his name was not put on the board and so after school, I swung by 7-11 to let him pick out a pack of gum.
As we approached the counter, Ethan explained to the gal at the counter that he was getting a prize for not getting his initials on the board. I looked at her and said "Because he's getting a prize for that, you can guess how often he gets his initials on the board..." She smiled and asked Ethan what school he goes to. He replied "The River Academy Christian School." She responded by saying "Well, that's a good school..." so Ethan asked if she went to that school, too. She informed us that she went to Lincoln. "Is that a Christian school?" Ethan asked. "No." she replied.
"But you love Jesus anyway." Ethan informed her, pointing to heaven, and walked out to the van.
You gotta love kids.
