While mum was busy attending a work event dad was in charge. And he may have dropped the ball just a little bit.
Three year old Brooklyn’s mum, Aliza Friedlander, was attending an early-morning work event, and left her preschooler with her dad in charge. The result? Her toddler wore a pair of white potty training underwear to school.
The dad drove his older daughter, Lila, 5, to school then met his mother-in-law, Anita King, at Brooklyn’s Tuesday-morning music class before heading to work.
But shortly after the class began, Mrs King noticed something was wrong with her granddaughter’s outfit.
“Her initial thought was she was wearing white bike shorts scrunched up in the front with a shirt covering them,” Aliza Friedlander told TODAY Parents. “I think when she went into the classroom and saw Brooklyn from behind, she realized that they, in fact, weren’t shorts.”
To make sure she was seeing things correctly, Mrs King approached a friend of the family for a second opinion.
“She stayed very calm and didn’t make a big deal about it and just turned to one of my close friends, Melissa, and asked, ‘I think Brooklyn is wearing underwear,’ to which Melissa said, ‘Yes,'” said Mrs Friedlander.
Like any good grandma, Mrs King handled things on her end like a pro, slipping into older sister Lila’s classroom to borrow a pair of extra shorts from her bag and taking Brooklyn back to music class properly clothed.
Soon after, Mrs Friedlander received a text message from her friend with a photo of her underwear-clad daughter.
“When I got the text message from my friend, I just shook my head and laughed,” said Mrs Friedlander, who then texted her husband: “You sent her to school in underwear.”
“She was actually wearing a pair of underwear under the underwear, so she was wearing them as shorts even though they weren’t,” said Mrs Friedlander.
“He has never let an epic fail happen like this before … he spends a ton of time with the girls and gets them dressed all the time, which is what makes this even funnier.”
