Tattletale

We were watching Cars tonight (again), when all of a sudden, Brandon said, “Daddy poked me in the eye when we were driving race cars.”  I wondered where that came from.  I asked Brandon what happened.  He stuck his pointer finger in the air, and said, “Daddy poked me with his finger, like this,” and demonstrated for me, blinking as he stuck his finger in his eye.  I asked Dave when he walked into the room if that really happened.   Sometimes Brandon just makes stuff up, actually most of the time, he’ll say stuff that didn’t happen.  Then Dave said, “Uh, yeah.”  What??  So I had him explain.  He said, Brandon was driving the car, then the steering wheel got a little loose on him, so Dave tried to reach around and grab it, and accidentally got Brandon in the eye.  Then he told Brandon, “You’re such a tattletale, you’re not supposed to tell on Daddy.”  This was a definite delayed reaction tattletale since it happened over two weeks ago, during our trip over Halloween!
