The Dirty Dilemma

mydaddyblog

A kitchen is in disarray with muddy footprints leading from the door to the center. The kitchen has a cozy, homey feel with wooden cabinets and a checkered floor. A very dirty kid, covered in mud from head to toe, stands in the middle of the kitchen. He's wearing a striped shirt and shorts, both barely visible under the grime. His hair is a tousled mess, and his face smudged with dirt. The kid has an exaggerated, frustrated expression as he holds up a single finger, showing a small ink stain on it. His mom, a woman with short curly hair and an apron, looks at him incredulously from the kitchen table, where she was peeling potatoes.
*Mom! Look at this! It'll take forever to clean this ink stain off my finger!*
