Throwing: A Conversation With Luke

After picking up L from daycare….
- DH: Tell Mommy what you were doing.
- L: Writing sentences that say “I will not throw things in the classroom.”
- Me: What were you throwing?
- L: A beanbag.
- Me: Did the teacher tell you to stop and you didn’t?
- L: No.
- Me: Did you know you weren’t supposed to throw beanbags inside?
- L: I wasn’t throwing!
- Me: Did a beanbag travel some distance by leaving your hands and ending up in someone else’s hands while touching nothing but air?
- L (slightly smiling but sheepish): Yes.
- Me: That would be throwing.
