Bloody Umpire
Jenica won a pumpkin at the school carnival and proudly brought it home to decorate. Along with the pumpkin, she won stickers with which to decorate it (to my infinite relief, as carving is messy and time consuming.) She took special care to place each and every foam sticker in it’s place with a little fanged mouth and bushy evil eyebrows lined up just so. When she was done, she took a few minutes to inspect her work then ran to get her red marker.
She utterly mangled the poor cute little face with red lines and smears and when I questioned her about it, she explained with obvious exhasperation, “He needed blood, Mommy, he’s an umpire!“
