How Not to Make A Good Impression

Today we had a visitor come to the house...someone on whom we needed to make a good impression. The teenagers have been sharing their favorite tunes with the younger children, who, of course, immediately memorize all the words to the raunchier songs!

Five-year-old to the rather large guest: "My favorite song is the Big Butts song!" I guess he thought since she had a big butt, she would appreciate his choice of a favorite song. The smile on her face quickly vanished, and the blood appeared to drain from her face. She looked at me, and was suddenly at a loss for words.

Sometimes as a parent, you just need to go with the flow.

In re: "she had a big butt". Let's hope she doesn't read your blog, Bob!
