Doing Homework Last Minute, I'm Not the One

He is in 4th grade, and this is the grade I start letting my kids manage their own study time and homework meaning I don't sit with them and watch them do their homework like in the earlier grades. I just ask them every day after study time, Did you do your homework? to check. I asked T-bop last night and he said yah mom, I did it.

Then this morning he was all, I have to do my homework! He lied to me, tsk tsk. and did not have time to eat his fresh-made pancakes, but had to have yogurt for breakfast! and oh well, he just earned having me sit right by him and read over his shoulder for the rest of the week. Bet he won't pull this mess again.

Here he is giving me a look after I told him to move back to the table.
