One for the wedding speeches...

I went to pick Tobes up from school today and his class came out but he wasn't there. I noticed that none of his group of friends came out either and I started to fear the worst. Sure enough the Headteacher (like the Principal) called me over and asked to speak to me. She explained that Tobes had been involved in a game at playtime. It started as a game of Kiss Chase with the girls trying to catch the boys but then one of the girls, I'll call her Emma, told the boys that whoever had the longest willy could marry her. So the boys all got out their willies to compare!! At this point the Headteacher, who is a very nice lady, was trying not to smile and I was shocked but trying to look concerned without laughing. I asked what had happened then and she said that the children were taken to her office and she explained that willies were private and to be kept in trousers and to please not play that game anymore.

Some of the boys were in tears when their parents went into the classroom to get them. Toby was fine. He seemed bemused by all the fuss. I think he was more concerned that he lost the contest, one of his friends won. Emma was downright defiant. She's a firecracker. I fear Rosie will be similiar when she's older. So funny! I did have a little chat with Tobes on the way home about it being inappropriate to get his willy out on the playground and he said he wouldn't do it again. When we got home I had to drag J to the kitchen to tell him about it so we could laugh without Tobes hearing us. Jason's first question - Did Toby win?

Holy smokes!! I would be more embarrased to be the parents of that girl. I guess it would have been easier if they were all wearing kilts regimental. Luckily we havent had any willy issues with Harrison.

I know! The funny thing is she's very sweet, just precocious. She has two older brothers and I think she picks up a lot from them.
