So Carter woke up with a bloody nose this morning. Whilst I am tending to him, Casey goes upstairs to inspect the damage. Upon removing Carter's pillow from the bed, THIS is what he finds under his pillow:
That's right.
A LIGHTER, a POKER CHIP and a piece of mulch.
While Casey questioned the child about where he got the goods, I had to leave the room I was laughing so hard. Apparently, these were all items he found while scavenging at the self-service car wash while Casey washed the car before we left for Spring Break. Awesome.
In his defense, I don't think Carter knows what a lighter does. He is always on the lookout for robot parts, and I have a feeling he thought this would be perfect.
In Casey's defense, he knew Carter had found the poker chip, was totally grossed out, and assumed Carter had thrown it away when Casey asked him to. Apparently we need to "adjust" Carter's hearing aids a bit.
So there you have it.
Oh, the things that children consider "treasure".
