"I have a funny story to tell you..."

I always get nervous when any of my children's teachers, babysitters, or anyone who has spent time with my children when I am not present say, "I have a funny story to tell you!
Well.... when I went to school to pick up Scotty on Friday, I was a little late (imagine that) so he was lined up on the wall with about 5 other kids who were waiting for late parents and Miss Dishon ( I think she is a counselor or something at the school) immediately walks toward me laughing and says...."I have a funny story to tell you. I am thinking where is Mrs. Grant and what did Scotty do. Well Mrs. Grant (Scotty's kindergarten teacher) did not show up to school so Miss Dishon and another lady stepped in for her. Miss Dishon proceeds to tell me that while the kids were playing outside she looks over and Scotty has his pants down and is peeing by a tree. She is laughing and says only one student came to tell her he saw Scotty pulling up his pants, she gave him some story and assured him that Scotty was not peeing. She didn't want the boy to spread it around to the rest of the kids, which I appreciated. She laughed and took great humor in it... I think it helped that she is 7 months pregnant. Well now that I am humiliated and thinking aren't we way past this...we head home. At lunch I decided to ask Scotty about it.
I said, "Scotty did you pee on the playground today?"
Scotty looks at me sheepishly and says, "No".
So I proceed to give him the lecture that you should always tell the truth and you get into more trouble if you lie. Finally he says, "mom I am telling the truth I didn't pee on the playground I peed in the dirt!!"
me-"Why didn't you run inside and use the bathroom?"
scotty- "I had to go really really bad, I couldn't run."

All I could do at this point was laugh inside and be grateful that it was just a "funny story" and not a "dreaded phone call" to come and bring a change of clothes for your son!
