Boy Child and I were on a walk last night. It's a bit chilly here in East Tennessee (chilly for us anyway) and we both had on jackets. Boy Child told me, as we made our way down the winding road, that he was not allowed to wear his hood up while he was in school. He wondered, aloud, what the reason for this could possibly be. I gave him my thoughts.
We came upon a family on the path. A large family who seemed completely unconcerned they were covering THE ENTIRE PATH and totally being rude. But whatever. The Boy Child moved behind me as we passed and I said to them, "Good evening!"
The totally ignored me.
Okay, not true. They looked at me. And said nothing.
We walked on.
"That was kind of rude," said the Boy Child.
"Yeah."
"Do you think they think we're in a gang?"
"Excuse me?"
"I have my hoodie on. Do you think they think we're in a gang?"
"Son. My hoodie is PINK. What kind of gang would we be in? A PowerPuff Girl gang?"
He considered that for a moment.
"We can be in a gang that likes to bake and loves Jesus," he decided.
"Good plan."
He then did a high kick and shouted, "We kick ass for the Lord!"
Y'all. I'm not positive. But I'm pretty sure that there will never, ever, EVER be anyone good enough for him.

I swear Steph, he cracks me up! And, by the way... can I join your gang? I'll have to buy a pink hoodie though... What's the initiation? Can I bake cupcakes while singing hymns?
And you worry about your parenting skills. Honey you got it in the bag!
LMAO!!!
OMG - LMAO too! Kick ass for the Lord! Love it!
Your son is awesome; and I don't even believe in G-d. LOL
What an adorable child!! Of course you already knew that.
And no, there will never be anyone good enough for him.
OMG. I love boychild. LMAO!
LOL he is adorable and yep like all good mamas no girl will be good enough for your son LOL.
except for my Eeyore, right?!
Can I be in your powder puff girl gang?
That is so funny and something my brother would have said. :)
Good gravy, between yesterday and today...you've got to put up a warning, I nearly wet myself.
If the age difference between your Boy and my Girl weren't so vast, I would think about raising her to your specifications, just to be part of the family.
LOVE it!
I hate rude people.
I often hold the door for people. It's how I was raised. So when they walk through without even a thanks for a nod, I thank myself for them . . .
"You're WELCOME!" I bellow. And then I smile . . .
Twisted, I know . . .
hahaha that's awesome! Your son is definitely super cool:)
He is awesome, that's for sure! :)
I love hearing about your Boy Child. I hope this place doesn't go away. He gives me hope for the future.
Man, you could never be sad for long with THAT kid around!
Peace.
He really knows how to look at the bright side of thing in life doesn't he!?
That's pure awesome by the way...
Any chance he might want to go exotic in his bride selection and go for a gorgeous Canadian gal six years his junior? It's going to be hard to find someone good enough for Emma too.
OMG, I'm crying I'm laughing so hard!
That is awesome.
Yes, there will be someone good enough. My Miss-Miss. There's a six-year difference, but they can make it work. :)
That is just awesome! I love it! Thank god for blogging so that you can look back on this moment and relish it in the future.
