Life Lesson #174: Make A New Friend Wherever You Go



Keaton had been trying for several minutes to remember a girl's name whom she sees after school each day and was attempting, without success, to get Reagan to help her recall it. Keaton knew the little girl went to Reagan's school but the girl's mother teaches at Keaton's school. Reagan, not really interested in the conversation to begin with, just couldn't seem to place the girl and help Keaton with the name.

Keaton: "Come on Reagan! You know her. What's her name?"

Reagan: "I have no idea who you are talking about!"

Keaton: "Yes you do. You said hello to her one day when you came with Mom to pick me up."

Reagan: "Keaton, forget it...I have no idea who you are talking about!"

Keaton: "Yes you do! Remember, you said you met her in detention!"

Reagan (shocked look and then whispering as she sneaked away from the inevitable parental inquisition): "Oh, her."

(Addendum to Life Lesson #174: Don't always divulge where you met said friend...especially to your sister.)
