I accidentally stole it.
When James got home from school yesterday I found a rock in his backpack. I thought nothing of it and just put it back. To me it did not look special. It wasn't shiny or sparkly. Just a brown rock.
While I was at work, I believe James explained to his dad that he took the rock from his science center at school because he really wanted to show me. oops. Josh explained that because James did not ask to bring the rock home, that it was stealing. Que the tears and devastation.
James was so afraid of his punishment at school. They have good behavior -green, moderate-yellow, and bad-red.
James has been on green since the first day of school! (Woot) He just knew that he would have to move it to yellow since he did something wrong. Dad explained we didn't care about the yellow, as long as he told the truth.
While walking to school today James held tight to that rock. Explaining to me that he accidentally stole it, and what he was going to tell his teacher. I told him there's no such thing as accidentally stealing something. He should know from now on, if he really likes something he should just ask to bring it home, etc.
We couldn't find his teacher this morning, so I'm not sure if she's even there. I left him with the rock telling him, what he should do.
I'll keep you posted.
