Off to School...

Papa Bear took the day off of work today so that the family could spend some together. We couldn't get our act together early enough, so P.B. took M to school. Today was pajama and movie day...seriously, what am I paying the school for? I could keep him home and do the same thing, but whatever. Anyway, I gave P.B. some p.j.'s for M and sent them off to school with M's pillow (as his teacher instructed).

After B woke up from his nap, we hurriedly got our stuff organized and rushed off to school to pick up M. When arrived in the parking lot, I made a comment about how funny M must look in his p.j.'s and rain boots (M is currently obsessed with green frog rain boots that he insists on wearing every single day. rain. shine. or other. He refuses to wear any other shoes). P.B. said, "I didn't put boots on M. They wouldn't fit over his p.j.'s, so I just didn't put any shoes on him." I sat there, mouth open and speechless...I know, hard to imagine.

Me: "Seriously? No shoes?"
P.B.: "Yeah. Why?"
Me: Again momentarily speechless. "Uh, they aren't allowed to go to school without shoes on. He could step on something sharp or dirty. It's written in the school manual." (I actually only thought the last two sentences.)
P.B.: "Did we get any phone calls requesting that we pick him up?"
Me: "No."
P.B.: "Then what's the problem?"
Me: ...
