The rainbow episode between Katelyn & I transpired as follows last nite:

Rex: "Sweetey, what did you do at school today?"
Katelyn: "I made rainbows today. Do you want me to make you a rainbow?"
R: "Oh, I’d love to get one"

Katelyn rushed to her table, broke out her markers and after a few minutes, returned with a sheet of paper with a rainbow drawn on it.

K: "Here you go. Do you like it?"
R: "Wow, I love it! Thank you so much…"
K: "You bring it to work tomorrow and hang it up okay?"
R: "Sure, I’d do that."
K: "Make sure you show it to your friends at work."
R: "I’ll do that too."
K: "Make sure you tell them to ask you who made it okay?"
R: "Of course!"

So this morning the first thing she asked me when she woke up was where the rainbow was. I didn’t see it on the cofee table. I was hurrying to get to work and didn’t have time to look around for it. So I lied and told her it’s in my car, thinking that’d be the end of it. That white lie quickly turned out to be a mistake, as Katelyn ran outside and peered down the window of my car.

K: "Daddy, I can’t find the rainbow in your car"
R: "It’s in there baby"
K: "Are you sure you put it in the car?"
R: "Yes, I put it in the car"
K: "Daddy, I don’t see it!"

She pouted a little and then got on her Grandpa’s car and headed to school. She looked disappointed. I better find her rainbow tonite or I’ll be in trouble. 🙁
