I left out this one crucial piece of information…


I took my son for a routine eye exam and the doc used a patch so she could test each eye by itself.

After she declared everything in good health, she told him he could keep his “pirate patch” as a souvenir.

My son was thrilled! He couldn’t wait to show his friends.

I dropped my excited kid off at school and five minutes later, my phone rang. It was the main office.

“How many hours a day is he required to wear this patch at school?”

“What?”

“The patch from the eye doctor. Is he allowed to take it off at all?”

“Oops. [Face palm.] Sorry – I forgot to mention that it’s a prop and not a prescription…” 😂
