Tuesday night on the way home from Costco, on of Luke and my conversations went like this:
"Mom, you are at 50 on that thing."
Me: "What thing? The speedometer?"
Luke: "That thing in the middle."
Me: "This one?" (pointing at the speedometer)
Luke: "Yeah."
Me: "Now I am at 60. This tells you how fast the car is going."
Luke: "Oh. It goes to 120? Have you ever had it at 120?"
Me: "No, I usually go between 70-80."
Luke: "Well, Dad had it at 120 once and a policeman pulled him over."
Me: "What? Really?"
Luke: "Yeah, he got a ticket and everything."
And then, he sat there.
I racked my brain trying to remember a notice from the police department telling me about this said ticket or any admittance from said husband about this alleged crime. Nothing.
Then Luke said: "Mom, I am just kidding." And then grinned.
Heaven help me when he is in high school.
