Adventures in Jarin's World-I'm just going to punish myself

Sooo... I’m fertilizing the lawn before it rains and this is what greets me around the corner.

Not a good sign.

Jarin: Mom…. It was an accident but don’t worry I’m going to punish myself.
I’m not sure if I want to know how this managed to happen. Dare I ask?
Me: Jarin…what happened or do I want to know?
Jarin: If I tell you I will be in trouble and I won’t get another Dsi game eveeeerrrr….but…it….was an accident
Me: Ok Jarin we’ll talk about this when I get inside.
Jarin: But but mommmmm dad it going to punish meeeeeeee
Me: I said we’ll talk about it when we get inside.

This is where the lamp shade came from. I need an 8 foot latter just to get up there myself.
I’m not sure how this happened but I think I need a drink before the drama explanation.

Me: Ok Jarin what happened
The Diva: Uh see…we were uh…Jarin was….
Me: You hush
Jarin : See mom Mickey sorta had an accident.
Me: What kind of accident? The throwing kind or tossing over the balcony kind?
Jarin: Ummmm maybe the kicking down the stairs kind.

Seems like other stuff animals suffered the same fate.
I’m not even sure I can punish him for knocking down the shade. The torment of not getting upset is much more fun.

Me: Jarin how about you just not try to kill Mickey next time.
Jarin: But mommmm since it was an accident…I’m just going to punish myself okay?
Tears are starting to form…hear comes the lip…He looks really traumatized….wonder how long I can drag this out without laughing. Think I'll get a glass of wine.
