Speaking of hats

Son #1 had to go back to school today after a 4 day weekend. Anxieties were running high as usual. He was discussing a particular issue with me and I was attempting to make constructive suggestions. One of my suggestions was to talk to his teacher about his worry without mentioning any of the kids by name.

He brushed off my idea on his way out the door and said "no, I don't think so mom. I'd rather just keep it under hats."

Here's a couple of monkeys under hats.  How about staging that photo session?  "Three Elmo's (check), two Cookie Monsters (check), one freaked out monkey in cap & overalls (check)."  If I got to name the one on the right he would totally be "Scorsese".
