the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Tokyo, 2009.09.30

Kenny's daycare journal today contained an interesting nugget. He's learned to obfuscate when guilty!

What an accomplishment. I was twenty times his age before I picked up that trick.

The incident at the daycare today started when he and one of his classmates began to pull some of the furniture away from the wall. When the teacher demanded, "Kenny, what are you doing?" he gave them a guilty look. Then he turned, pointed out the window, and started exclaiming that there was a bird outside the window.

Attaboy, keep 'em on their toes. I see no way that this can blow up in my face.
