While Amy and Kurtis were shopping at the mall, a funny (or troubling) incident occurred. They stopped in a toy store to purchase a birthday present for a friend's party, and without much of the usual asking for toys by Kurtis, they went to a clothing store where Amy found some clothes to buy. When she went to put her bags under the stroller, she noticed a heap of toys from the previous store hidden there. “Did you put these things here?” Amy asked sternly.
"I wanted to take them home", Kurtis responded bluntly. Momma then raced back to the store, explained to the worker what happened, and then Kurtis got a lesson in the proper way of taking items home!
Too bad for me, I was on my way to teach the lil' man the art of thievery! I'd be Finnigan to his Oliver Twist! We'd run the streets I tell you!!!

ha!!! that's crazy! Of course he wanted to take them home!! i'm sure Quinn will try something like that someday.
I love this story.
good grief--I remember when Josh did that one time at a bookstore. I nearly had a heart attack upon the discovery of a stash of calendars at the next store we were in...of all things to take!?! We promptly returned them. If only the sales clerk had been a bit more in tune to a teaching moment. Her response was, "oh, that's okay sweetie" and patted his head. UGGGGGH.
