One day after Jiu Jitsu, we had to run another errand and Dante prefers to not go anywhere BUT Jiu-Jitsu in his uniform. So he took off his pants and jacket and just wore his shorts and t-shirt. Two days later, when he had to go back for another lesson-- we couldn't find his pants ANYWHERE! Then I remembered he had taken them off in the car- so they must be in the very back.... nope! So- I keep looking- even looked on the fan- because we all remember what used to happen when Ethan couldn't find his shirts.
But nothing- and I was NOT about to shell out more money- just to buy a pair of new pants- unless I knew 100% for SURE- that they were lost forever. So- we miss the lesson and I keep looking and looking. A week goes by- and I'm like- alright they are gone! They have to be- I've searched high and low, back and forth, sideways left and right--- I told Chet and he said- well they probably fell out of the car at some point and no one saw or remembered. I was like- sweeeeettt!! So, I get the kids in the car and I tell Dante we will just have to buy him another pair of pants-- and then this conversation ensued:
Dante: OH YEAH!!- Wait mom- did you check the lost and found??
Me: Nope! Why would I check the lost and found- and WHAT lost and found?? At your school??
Dante: No- the one here.
Me: At the complex? Why would they be here at the complex?
Dante: Well- I just remembered that I was carrying everything in- my backpack, my jacket, my pants, my belt, and I dropped my pants- and I forgot to go back out and get them. So maybe they are in the lost and found.
Me: Are you for real Dante? Me laughing and saying- why didn't I think of that before?! Of course! :)
Oh, Dante- how much we LOVE YOU!!:)
Case CLOSED!
