I'm sorry, I didn't know...

Arun was so upset at mass this morning.  We walked into the church and he had to leave he was crying so hard.  He was upset because today was his very first Cub Scout meeting after mass and he wasn't wearing a uniform.  Truth be told, I didn't know what uniform he needed since he hadn't gone to a meeting yet; this didn't stop the verbal attacks throughout the mass.  I heard "See mommy, XXXXXX, is wearing his uniform."  "Even, XXXXX, has his uniform and this is just his first meeting too." The larger issue is that Arun failed to realize that both of the boys he pointed out had attended last year.  Ugh...I just didn't know!  So there I am in church trying to explain to an upset 8 year old that he will need to wait until his den leader tells me what he needs for his uniform - what a fun day at mass!  Now the funny side of this whole thing is that Ryun wasn't fazed a bit.  He was so excited because now every Sunday morning daddy and Arun will be there and "we get to do fun stuff, just the two of us by ourselves, right mommy?"  "Absolutely!" (Until daddy decides that it's mommy's turn to go, but I wasn't saying a word.  I had already gotten enough grief from Arun to last the day.)
