And Then I Crawled Under A Rock and Buried My Head
Last week I'm at the new ghetto Staples (labeled as such due to it being a new building yet still in the ghetto where we used to live) buying some school supplies (9¢ filler paper-um, hello!) and I've just got K with me (M was at dance camp, B at home). We're cruising through the store quickly b/c at this point I've got tons more errands to run.
I scurry into the check-out line with my paper, getting in front of a group of mature adults squawking like wet hens at each other. Something about their mother's brother's auntie's son being in 8th grade now...whatever, I totally didn't care.
I'm digging 50¢ out of my change purse when all of a sudden I hear K beside me yell:
"Hey, you! Stop talking!"
Oh, no she didn't!
O.M.G. Oh, yes she did!
I'm all like "K, that's not nice!" when the lady behind me says:
"I'm sorry, was I offending you? Am I talking too loud?" She's laughing as she says this BTW.
So what does K do? She answers her:
"Um, yes!"
*Insert title of post here*
This is what I have to deal with when she's not doing behaving like this.












Oh my goodness. I would think it but never say it. Gotta love kids and their brutal honesty.

That is hilarious. I hate it when my boys say exactly what I'm thinking to strangers, it makes it hard to discipline!

You just have to keep repeating that their behavior does not define your identity. I have to tell myself that a lot.

You know you've wanted to say that very thing at least once... too funny!

That is so funny. At least she is cute and can get away with it.
last weekend we were at a Safeway and the butcher guy was outside while we were on the way to the car. He was joking around with the kids and then S, 6 year old, said, "Stranger...You're a stranger!" *lol* I was embarassed but at least he listens to me but he is supposed to say that if I am not around not when I am right there with him. *lol*
