Caught RED handed

Zachary kept coming to me, saying his hand was bleeding and I couldn’t figure out what in the world was going on. Everytime I would look at his hand, the red would wipe away easily enough there weren’t any visible scratches, so I would send him off on his merry little way.

Later in the morning I was cleaning up in the kitchen and looked down at the fronts of my white cupboards and saw a child-sized red hand print smeared down the cabinet front. I stopped in my tracks and then a little light-bulb went on in my head.

Zachary.

I opened the freezer and checked the shelf with our frozen strawberries and noticed that the bag was suspiciously open. I hunted down Zachary and asked,

“Zachary. Were you in the freezer this morning?”

His answer?

“Why would I be in the strawberries?”

Busted, boyfriend.

  5. That's funny. I had a similar incident with my 5yr old and a chocolate candy bar. The chocolate face was a dead giveaway!
