Ben's cub scout den had an outing to the police department on Thursday. One of the things they got to learn about was fingerprinting. Each scout got to have a card done with their fingerprints... just like a real criminal! Or just like someone applying for a government job. ;)
Today I found the card and was looking at my little guys prints... when I noticed that he had filled out the top portion with his name by himself. *proud*
Wait a minute....
Me: "Ben did you write your name on this card yourself?"
Ben: *blushing* "Yes"
Me: "How did you spell your middle name?.... Wait, did you think your middle name was DING?!"
Ben: *sheepish giggling* "Yes, I did."
Me: !!! "Wait... does that mean you thought Grandpa's name was..."
Ben: "Yeah, Grandpa Ding."
So, David of course had noticed this problem on Thursday after Ben had filled out his name, and they had already had this same conversation. Say "Ding", and "Dean" out loud and you can surely see how he made the mistake. Is my little guy not the CUTEST ever!!?
We all had a good giggle out of it and I wanted to share it with everyone to give you all a smile. But please, no teasing him later, as he was worried when I said I wanted to post this story to the blog.
