Funny Family Story

Just as I thought I was finished posting for the day, I go to my email inbox and find an email from my brother Ashley. He is the father of 5 incredible children and is married to superwoman, a.k.a. Stephanie.... and in the email he told us a story about something that had happened with two his boys today.... I got a laugh out of this and thought you would enjoy hearing a little bit about my family.

My brother speaking:
I caught the boys embattled today over some minor issue. The skirmish was quick. Knighton bit Josiah and Josiah swung to hit him in the face.
I promptly called the two over to sit down in corners for about 10 or 15 minutes.
Then I called them over and asked what happened, which of course they were all too glad to share.
I asked Knighton "what did you do wrong." He manifested a sad look and said, "I lied about biting Josiah." Of course, I threatened him with dire consequences - liquid soap in mouth - if he lied to me again.
Then I turned to Josiah and asked the same question, "What did you do wrong?" to which he promptly replied, "I missed him when I swung at his face."
