Mom, You Didn't!

I picked Hannah up in carpool this afternoon as I do every day.  It had been a cloudy day, but as I sat there, the sun came out.  I dug my sunglasses out of my purse and put them on.  I must have sat in carpool for about ten minutes after that point. 

The way carpool works is each family has a number to hang from the rearview mirror.  The teachers call this number and your child lines up at one of three cones.  You pull up to the cone and a teacher loads your child in the car.  This particular day the teacher who let Hannah in the car had a cast on her arm.  I said something to her about not being able to get out of carpool even with a cast.  She laughed and said it was actually her second day that week because she had covered for someone else.  We laughed and I drove off.  I smiled at Hannah and asked her how her day way.

Hannah:  Mom!!!  Why are you wearing your glasses like that?!?!

Me: (Touching my face...trying to figure out what she is talking about.  They seemed fine to me.

Hannah:  Look!

This is what I saw when I looked in the mirror.  Apparently, I had been sitting there the entire time and carrying on a conversation with a teacher with a missing lens.  Hannah and I both got a huge laugh out of it.  When we picked Rachel and Aaron up, we told them what had happened and Rachel said, "Mom!  You didn't!"  Yes, yes, I did.
