Why Did You Say That?

I took the kids to the fabric store today. Donny wanted to take a walk through the mini-mall when we were finished shopping. There was a fountain in the middle of the mall with a pirate's ship encased in glass in the center of the fountain. Donny thought it was Captain Hook's ship. My bag ripped so we returned to the store for a new bag. The lady who checked us out helped me put the things into a new bag. Donny was telling her about the pirate's ship when all of the sudden he says, "She hits me sometimes." I just about passed out. I informed the lady that I never hit him and she told me, "There was nothing wrong with it in my day." I repeated that I didn't hit him and I didn't know why he would say such a thing. Walking to the car, I told Donny that the woman would think I was a bad mommy because of what he said. That is when he said, "Mama you're not a bad mommy. Abigail is the one who sometimes hits me." I told him that he should be a bit more clear next time and shoved the kids in the care before the police arrived.
