Collin will be home in from school in 2 hours and 12 minutes.
I am going to have a little talk with him. Apparently he has gotten himself into a little trouble today, well, thats what the behavior special said when she called Lisa this afternoon.
While standing in line for an activity during gym class, our little first grader decided to pass the time and do a little dancing. His arm then hit the kid standing next to him in the chest. That kid, not waiting for an "excuse me" or an "I'm sorry", which I am pretty positive Collin would have done, took offense and pushed Collin to the floor. Collin then reacted to the offense with defense, and punched the kid in the eye.
I should not find this funny.
But I do.
According to the behavior specialist, who we have dealt with only once before, both boys have talked it out and everything is okay. Neither of them had to leave school for the day, but instead have to spend the rest of the day in the "buddy" room. She thinks the boys are handling the situation very well. Which is fantastic.
I really don't know why I find this funny. I think its just trying to picture my boy actually taking a swing at another kid. Again, not funny, but I can't stop laughing about it. A part of me is kinda happy that he defended himself. Makes me think that any kid that watched it will think twice about pushing Collin to the floor. Way to stand up for yourself, Collin.
I'm real curious as to what he has to say about the whole thing.

I first read your title as "Thug Lite," which is what it turned out to be.
Hmm. I read it as "Thug Like," which is also what it turned out to be.
You HAVE to fill us in on what Collin says when you ask him about this. You've got us all curious now!
I demand the follow up on this story. I like to think Collin reared back and knocked you on your ass for daring to ask him what he was thinking.
