REPEAT OFFENDER

Ashton is officially a repeat offender! By the law! Both of my phones were up on my bed. That is where I tend to carry them. While I was cleaning or attempting to (haven't been back to it since) the kitchen. Ashton picked up one of the phones on my bed and thought.. I will call 911. Apparently it is the ONLY number my 5 year old son knows! He called and hung up. Also, dispatch called back. Ashton answered the phone and said "Don't come!".

I didn't not find any of this out until about 4 minutes later!

Doorbell rings, Sydney looks out the window to see who it is! MOM! its the POLICE!

ME: totally freaking out, wondering what the hell did I do!!

I answer the door, He says to me "ma am, can I talk to you?" Me: "what about?"

then he proceeds to open my door all the way and walk into my house. I am like really scared at this point, thinking I have been wrongly accused of something!

OFFICER: "a child called 911 and hung up and dispatch called back and he answered the phone and hung up again"

Me: "humm, okay! ASHTON!! where are you?"

Ashton standing in the living room literally scared to death!

ME: "Ashton, did you call 911?

Ashton: "NO!"

me: "well Ashton the policeman is here and he knows who called, so you might want to tell me!

Ashton "NO, mom, it wasn't me!"

As he begins to cry uncontrollably and hides behind me. At this point I think he thinks he is going to jail! He was SO upset, but still never admitted to it in front of the officer!

Me and the policeman tried to calm Ashton down, to tell him how important it is to only call 911 when there is an emergency like a fire or someone is hurt really bad, NOT just because your parent would NOT let you have your way!

We thanked the policeman and apologized over and over for WAISTING his time and the city's money!

Needless to say, My son will be punished....for LYING most of all! When you are confronted with it just admit to it. Take responsibility!

and... by the way... Ashton is a repeat offender! He called 911 when he was 16 mos old....two police showed up and didn't even ask to come in!

NEVER A DULL MOMENT AT THE RUDD'S HOUSE!
