This kid is a rascal for sure…….

Gage was looking for his dry erase board this morning. He was in the middle of looking over his school assignments for the day, which are written on the board, and set it down.  When he went back to get it, it was nowhere to be found.  We spent about 10 minutes looking for this thing and I was getting so frustrated. Gage cannot function without it, and he was having a fit and I was losing my patience because I thought he had lost it. I kept saying, “Gage, this makes no sense. How did it just disappear?” The whole time, Shea was sitting on the couch watching TV and every now and then he would so sweetly say, “I don’t know, Gage.” It never even crossed my mind that this little guy might have it. So, finally, Gage went over to the couch and started pulling the big pillows away in a last ditch effort to find his precious dry-erase board. And, there it was, hidden in the pillows by the one and only Shea. It was so hard for me to not laugh. Gage started pointing at him, saying, “You lied to me, Shea!” I explained to Gage that he doesn’t know what “lying” means, but considering how advanced his little scheme was to hide something, I’m not so sure anymore.
