The following is one of those things that happen in life that is just so ridiculous that it has to be written down.
So, we have this little neighbor boy who’s 6. He’s a Good natured, but very loud and all over the place.
Today, he came over, played outside with my boys for a while, then asked if he could come inside and play. The following is the conversation that ensued between The Husband and said neighbor child:
Child: Can I play in your house?
The Husband: [My wife] is resting so you need to play outside.
Child: Oh, please. The neighbors won’t let me play at their house til my owie is better.
The Husband: Why, what is your owie?
Child: I’m not supposed to say what it is.
The Husband: Well, what is it? You need to tell me.
Child: it’s Worm Ring.
Ringworm?!
Merry Christmas! Dear neighbors, I hope you don’t mind that our gift to you this year is a case of ringworm. Don’t worry, this is gift that you can share with the entire family. 🙂 We figured that given your advanced state of pregnancy you wouldn’t mind an extra trip or two to the doctor.
Love,
Your caring neighbors who let their child play with the neighbor kids but tell him not to tell anyone he has ringworm
