That's Life

Lauren received a light-up ball at school for good behavior and left it in her cubby on our way out. In the car, half way home, she remembered it, and I said she could get it the next day. Lauren started on about how the ball was alone and one of her friends would probably take it home just like someone had taken home her ocean diorama too, and her exact next words were "and I know that's just life, but..."
I held back my laughter but was rolling on the inside.
