Fresh Kid

I come home from work.

I get out of the truck.

My son and his friend, a neighbor kid, are standing in the drive.

I’m wearing my usual work duds: dress slacks, dress shirt, tie.

The neighbor kid asks, “Picture day?”

 

Damned smart ass kids.

    Props to the kid: that's a pretty good one, actually.

    At least you could send him home- the problems start when your own kid is being the smart aleck.

    No, no, no, Jim--it's not like that at all.

    You got TOTALLY pwned by a 13-year-old.

    The 6 year old probably would have told me I looked like crap.

    Or that they recognize (a) that you were dressed up and (b) that they could name one use for good clothes.
