I'm to blame again - general principle I guess.
I even get blamed because the kid wants to call it the The Pumpkin Great instead of The Great Pumpkin as Charles Shultz so named.
Well it seems one of them kids that adopted me as an uncle, decorated his pumpkin in a unique way. All by himself.
Just for reference:
-When a kid is quiet - they are into something they shouldn't be.
-A kid will ask for something in such a way - and when you are busy or on the phone as to not raise suspicions.
-Kids may forget you asked them to pick up socks seven seconds ago - they will remember 3 wks ago at 2:47 pm you mentioned ice cream.
-Kid may not be watching, listening, or paying attention - so you think. They are observing and making notes on something.
Kid took fired .22 lr ammo, 9mm and .45ACP Blazer ammo and hammered them into a pumpkin to make eyes, and scary smile.
Personally - I think this is great! Shows ingenuity, resoursefulness, originality, determination, and "stay to itness".
Seems the kid 'membered me pushing a fired 22lr case into the apple core I tossed.
Mom said they were going to use some paint on stuff to do pumkins, along with carving one.
Kid sees the ads in the paper with pumkins and scary faces, cuts one out and tapes it onto one of the many pumpkins - chooses one about 8" in diameter.
Gets the small tool box kept in the house for minor stuff, and he just happens to have kept the fired cases in his room he was supposed to toss upon getting home one day - but forgot.
Nail punch through paper for a pattern - seems the kid has learned about tracing paper...and mom has none of this paper in any shoe box anymore...
So when he gets done with prelim work, paper is removed and just a matter of using the hammer, nail punch , phillips screwdriver to get the hole big enough so the case will sure enough 'be seated'.
Then he puts everything up, and just sets the pumpkin on the counter. He goes into his room to do something else.
Mom was doing chores, in the garage, and other parts of the house. He was asked to entertain himself.
Mom has a hand full of laundry walking by...huh...double take. It took her a second to realize what he had done. She hurries to put this load in, grabs the pumpkin and down the hall to kids room.
"Yeah mom - I made you The Pumpkin Great, I'm getting hungry, it that junk in the crockpot ready yet...?
