Epic disciplinary parenting fail:
Note from teacher: Young Indiana had to be spoken to in the yard for licking other children.
Me, already trying not to giggle: Indy, did you lick someone in the yard today?
Indy, full of big blue eyes and guilelessness: Remember the game we were playing where we were dogs?
Me: …yes…
Indy: I saw one of my owners, so I had to lick him!
Me: *completely loses it, bursts out laughing*
I’m still giggling. I eventually managed to look solemn enough to say he shouldn’t do that, but oh dear. The thing is, the dogs game was like two or three weeks ago, and the other kid had NO IDEA why Indy was licking him. *weeps with laughter*
