Sometimes, little kids are a little too honest. Get Carin to tell you her surprise blueberries story sometime if she hasn’t already. Or there’s the time I walked proudly into the house on my dad’s birthday, handed him the present in my hand and said “Happy birthday, dad! Here’s your hammer! Mom’s coming in with your shoes in a minute!”
Both of those examples, I’m sure you would agree, were not youngsters at their most helpful and it would have been a whole lot better for everyone if Carin and I had shut the hell up. But I do hope that if either of us had been presented with the chance to be totally honest that this little dude was given that we would not have shut the hell up. Great work, kid. Don’t ever change, even if at least one person might wish you would.
Whitley County sheriff’s deputies, Williamsburg police and Kentucky State Police were trying to serve Hicks with “multiple outstanding warrants for her arrest,” the sheriff’s office said.
No adult family members were willing to say whether or not Hicks was in the house, the sheriff’s office said.
That’s when the toddler “stood up, put his hands on his hips, and stated ‘It is good to be honest … we shouldn’t lie, she is inside the room next to the bathroom!’” the sheriff’s office said.Deputies found Hicks there, and she was served with two outstanding Whitley County circuit indictment warrants charging her with possession of meth and drug paraphernalia, as well as four other outstanding district court warrants.
Police said that in spite of his being a total stoolie, the child was in no danger of being abused at the home where he was visiting family at the time of the incident, so no action was taken to remove him.
Hahahahahaha ah the blueberries. So as we were driving down to see my aunt. I’m pretty sure it was my aunt and not my grandma. Anyway, we were driving by a fruit stand and bought a basket of blueberries. We thought it would be a nice surprise for her that we could give her when we got there. I forget why we weren’t going to just give it to her as soon as we got there, but for some reason, it was some kind of surprise. I was so excited about surprising her with blueberries. It was a long drive. A drive where I thought about how much she would like the blueberries that we got for her! Woo! We got there and my sister said “We have a little surprise for you later” and I couldn’t hold it in anymore…so my little kid self thought if I just clamped my hands over my ears then I couldn’t hear it, and if I couldn’t hear it, neither could they! So that’s what I did. I squished my ears as hard as I could and screamed as loud as I could, “Bluuuuuuuuuuuueberries!” And something happened. People were shushing me! They had heard me! That wasn’t the way it was supposed to work! Yup, that was me. Oops. If I had some kind of hooligan relative and the cops showed up, I would totally have done that. I always wanted to be the helpful one who knew something.
