humbled

Damon told me today, "Mom, you don't look that much like a girl. You look kind of like a girl and kind of like a boy."

Me: "Oh...that's too bad. What do you mean?"

Damon: "I don't know. It's like worms. Worms aren't boys or girls. You look like that."

What a clever, funny boy! At least you can be proud of his mind, if not his tact. Good thing he's cute too. That always covers a lot.

Kristyn said...

Thanks for the good laugh!! That boy is too funny... but he is probably being totally serious. Love it!

Charlotte said...

Totally serious and totally mortifying.

Wendi said...

Oh my heck---too funny. Don't take it personally Charlotte. You remind him of all these things he said to you when he is married with children K?!

ROFL - Hilarious! I've been called a lot of things by my kids, but a worm . . . :-)

I can empathize - I spent my high school years with short hair, T-shirts, and jeans. I finally bought some earrings when I went to college.

Oh Charlotte, that is so funny! Just so you know, I've never considered you a worm. I think you look like a very beautiful girl. (I guess I could say woman but all the people I like best are girls to me).

I hope Damons comment made you laugh a lot thinking about it and that you didn't do anything drastic to look less of a worm.

I love the crazy things you post about what your kids have to say. As I remember you always approached things from a different angle so they must get it from you, but what a great quality. And I agree with Jamie - you have always been quite adorable.
