What really happens in the Boys bathroom

Today I got a call from Tanner's school from the Vice Principal. Of course when I saw "HL Elementary" I was worried. He told me nothing was wrong and tanner hadn't done anything bad, but there had been an "incident". Bracing myself for the worst, I listened.
You'll never believe what he told me. "Tanner and his friend were in the bathroom at the Urinals and I guess his friend decided it would be funny to PEE on him. He's shirt and shorts are all wet and he needs a change of clothes. Do you think you could stop by the school with some?"
OH MY HECK!!! What is wrong with kids! Who would do that! Not only that, but who would not have taught their children that this would absolutely not ever be ok to do? I understand boys are boys, but there must be line some where that's drawn. Tanner said he wasn't mad at his friend, but it did make him feel sad.
These are the days that make you want to keep your babies safe at home in your arms where no one can be mean! I guess we all have to learn it the hard way!

It is a quite week...

This week will be so quite in our home. Mike and Brooklyn flew out to Virginia to be with his family. His Grandma past away this weekend and he really wanted to be with his Mom to help her out. Sadly, Tanner and I had to stay home. Tickets at the last minute are crazy expensive - even WITH buddy passes from our great brother-in-law. Plus... Tanner has an eye doctor appointment on Tuesday at Primary Children's which takes months in advance to schedule, so we couldn't miss it. Now I get the luck of working lots of extra hours too since I have no kids home during the day to play with.
Last night Tanner stayed at his cousins house since I had to work early this morning. The house was so quite and me being the chicken I am, not only triple checked all the doors and windows, but also locked my bathroom and bedroom doors just in case.
Today Tanner and I are going to hit the last Bee's Baseball game and then have the ladies from our neighborhood over for games and snacks. I have a feeling it will mostly be visiting, but since that's my favorite part about our get togethers, I really don't mind. Now I just need to figure out how I'm going to get Tanner to bed early and keep him there while everyones over to our house!
