Mi Culpa

Mario had been absent for several days, so when he came to school this morning, I asked if he was feeling better. He responded, "Oh, I haven't been sick. My grandma had a heart attack." My jaw dropped, and I gave him a hug. I told him how sorry I was and I asked when the funeral was going to be.

A look of pure horror flashed across his face as he exclaimed, "She's not dead! She's just in the hospital!"

Whoops.
