This week your story needs to include the following phrase:
“I don’t believe you.”
The small boy in front of the Principal looked angelic in his denial. His stony-faced teacher stood behind him staring into his scheming brain.
“I don’t believe you,” the Principal announced, “your mother would not have put your maths homework into the turkey stuffing.”
The boy said, “It’s thanksgiving, please pardon me?”

Yes they can be inventive can’t they…..
Don’t I know it! 🤣
I had you in mind as I wrote that one…..I’m sure you’d have a good book full of excuses by now as I did as well…..
Lol! To be honest… teaching 3-5year olds it’s usually the parents with the excuses! And they don’t really get much! 🤣
The turkey ate my homework. 🤪
Seems a topical notion at this time of year?
That is one excuse I haven’t heard.
There’s always one no matter how fantastic. Thanks for stopping by😉
“It’s thanksgiving, please pardon me?” LOL sorry kid, that only applies to turkeys.
