Tonight, after picking up the boys from daycare, I had to make a stop at Aldi. I rarely take the kids shopping with me, just because it’s easier alone…but this time I did. They were really good while we were shopping. We got in line to check out and in front of us was a gentleman had on a camouflage hat, similar to my dad’s (Papa) and a green Jacket similar to one my dad has.
The following conversation took place:
Ian: “Papa? Papa?”
Me: “No honey, that’s not papa. But he has a hat and jacket like Papa.”
(Man smirks, because he hears the conversation)
Vincent: “Hey mama, Papa has a mustache and so does he…..he has a silly mustache”
(the gentleman had a long mustache with a slender beard below it)
Me: “You’re silly” (hoping the guy thought the conversation was “cute” too.
(Gentleman turns and smiles at the boys)
Ahhhh the way our kids make us oddly uncomfortable when stating the obvious….very loudly…lol
