The boys called 911 and hung up. When I say the boys....here's how it went "Nathan you want to call 911." "Ok."
Minutes later I look out the front window and see police officers getting out of their car and the boys running up to the house. They were freaked out. The police saw the rage in my eyes and for some reason they literally played the "good cop" role. It went something like this...
"Oh, boys, you'll never do that again right? Great! Now do you want to see the police car? I'll let you turn the lights on."
Really cop-per you're encouraging this behavior? The boys were so freaked out and felt horrible about the whole thing so it was good that he was nice, I of course played the bad cop role and after I took the pictures sent them straight to bed.
The cops were so nice. They really were excited about hanging out with the boys. It was super cute. As the cop was showing them the car I heard him say, "sorry the car's dirty, we were just in a dirty part of town." I wanted to to discuss the fact that he was apologizing to my 6 year old about the car being dirty and I was really wondering about the dirty part of town. Like so many times in my daily life, I'm too shocked by what is happening to ask questions.
Every time I think about this story and look at this picture, I just laugh and laugh. Thanks for sharing Lauren!
