Another Boy

It became evident fairly quickly after Zachary was born that he wasn't going to be the well behaved child that Holly is so it should come as no surprise that it had only taken him about a week of school to end up in the time out chair. Zachary loves sharing parts of his school day with us, especially if it involves Jacob (aka Broken Arm Boy). So, we're in the kitchen discussing something or other and Zachary pipes up with "Jacob and another boy had to sit in time out today". Now since Jacob and Zachary have become pretty much attached at the hip, Jack and I had a pretty good idea who "another boy" was. "Who was the other boy?" we asked. By the look on his face it was clear he hadn't expected us to inquire about "another boy's" identity. He gamely tried to worm his way out of revealing himself but we finally wore him down with subtle yet effective tactics and he admitted it was him. He wasn't giving up anything else though so it took a little bit more work to finally figure out what he had done. From what I could gather, he had been playing instead of listening. He assures us he won't end up in the time out chair anymore but I have a sinking feeling that "another boy" and the time out chair will be meeting again.
