Setup: Me standing near a patch of clovers, my son across the yard, my mother sitting on the porch.
Conversation:
Me: Hey N, have you looked for any 4 leaf clovers?
N: What? (walking closer)
Mom: Ma’am (correcting him)
Me: Have you looked for any 4 leaf clovers?
N: What? (still coming across the yard)
Mom: Ma’am! (still correcting him)
Me: 4 leaf clovers! Have you found any this year?
N: WHAT? (increased frustration)
Mom: Ma’am!! (still correcting him!)
N to Mom : STOP saying dirty words!
Mom and I looked at each other and fell over in a fit of laughter - I am not kidding when I tell you I nearly pissed myself. He was frustrated because he couldn’t hear what I was saying, and he thought she was saying “Damn!” over and over and it was making him SO mad!! When I told him she was telling him to say “Ma’am” instead of “What” he cracked up and said “OH! I thought she kept saying the D word!”
I crack up thinking about what must have been going through his head… the look on his face was priceless, he was so irritated that she kept putting her .02 cents into our conversation that he couldn’t even make out LoL…
Howdy! I'm the girl that writes here. This is where I organize my thoughts, and document the real life experiences of me and my son. You will find crazy funny stories, obsessively photoshopped pictures, some random yet awesome links, craftacular stuff, creative frugalness, and strong opinions here. Grab a drink, maybe one on the rocks, and sit for a spell. Oh, and read. This is a blog, after all!
