"I just don't know where all the pencils go." Said the teacher.
I shrug my shoulders, "I don't know...but they seem to like sharpening them into nubs."
Little did I know, I would solve the pencil mystery. My house! Somehow my house is The Grand Central Station of pencils. I know this because I have never bought a pencil to be kept in this house...EVER!
I showed my husband the pencil collection I found picking up the house.
"Where did all of those come from?" He questioned in disbelief.
"Around the house." I said. "And I haven't even looked under the couch cushions yet."
"So there's more..." He was stating the obvious.
"Have you ever bought a pencil?" I asked squinting my eyes at him.
"Never." He states. Confirming my suspicion of our little pencil thieves.
"Well I guess we know where all the schools pencils are ending up." I said.
Now I have to go tell my kids that we do not need any more pencils, but mommy is running low on pens.

That is SO hilarious!!! Oh, my gosh, I'm still laughing. You're too funny. Good one.
ReplyDeleteThat is so funny. When the school year started i remember either the teachers giving me a suggestion to donate pencils or we would pick a paper and for me it was always pencils. Except for one..... Colored pencils. lol
ReplyDeleteLooks like my house. Shay has a massive pencil collection. I don't think she stole them though. I have bought / she has collected way too many. She's always getting pencils as prizes or giveaways.
ReplyDeleteOh, hey and I voted for you at TopMommyBlogs! :)
ReplyDeleteI like this. It is so true...
ReplyDeleteSo this is where I should look for pencils missing from my classroom. Hmm... very informative.
ReplyDeleteFunny post. We have the opposite problem at my house, especially for pens. I've sent stuff to the kids school signed with gel pens, green pens, purple pens, markers, and pencil crayons. Where do the pens go?
ReplyDeleteI have a big container of pencils too. Never thought of where they come from , they just show up!!
ReplyDeleteLol, I guess I know where my pencil went. ;p
ReplyDeleteRio handed me his pencil to correct his homework.
ReplyDelete"Oh another pencil from school huh?" I stated.
"No, it's from my backpack." He answered.
Of course it is.
