At Kaden's preschool they have a 'Day at the Park' to celebrate the summer birthdays. The class meets at the park to play, then they gather to celebrate the bdays. Everyone that has summer birthdays bring a treat to share. Miss Patty (the director) brings ice cream. I am showing you this picture for a reason. Notice the bag of yummy caramel popcorn? Don't you think that most kids LOVE caramel popcorn? Obviously one little birthday girl named Nicole did! She proudly passed around her bags of popcorn to all her friends. Each one said, "Happy Birthday" and "Thank You"......all but one. One loud and boisterous kid screams, "Ewwww! That's gross! MOM!!! MOMMM!!! I don't want this stuff - it's disgusting! MOM! COME GET IT!!!"
Yeah, all the parents look at me and are anxiously awaiting my reply. What is this mom going to do? Is she as crazy as her son? Has she not taught him any manners? How is she going to handle this embarrassing situation?
I did what any good mother would do! I screamed back in likewise manner, "Kaden Christopher! Sit back down and be quiet!", turned bright red and buried my face in my hands.
...and enjoyed that bag of popcorn the whole way home!

Ha ha ha! Oh Missy, I'm so sorry! That's so funny though. At least you had the popcorn to console you. Kids! Even when they have pretty much perfect mothers like you... they can still throw curve balls!
