Ummm, reading???

Cagey is getting to be a really good reader. He can already read most of his first grade readers and all of the short stories in his reading lessons. The problem comes when he becomes aware of words in places we were happy he was blissfully ignorant of just a few months prior.  Last week as I walked from the kitchen to my bedroom in my 10 year old cut off sweat pants he calls to me, "Mommy, why do you have hot tie written on your bum?" Yeah they're 10 years old, it was a joke and now they are gone. Later, he read over my shoulder as I perused different websites and asked me, "Mommy what is Porn?" Okay that last sentence sounded really bad. Let me clarify- it was an advertisement for some kind of Porn blocker or something. I tried to tell him in the simplest terms possible, "it's bad things you shouldn't look at." He replied, "Like bums?" Yes, Cagey exactly like bums. I'm sick of seeing bums...especially ones with hot tie written across them.

I'm doubled over trying to type this! Oh, so, funny! Yeah, when Braden started reading advertisements while in the car....that was not a good day. :( Yeah, bums should not have words written upon them. AND most of the people sporting the pants with the hot tie on them are not worthy of the label. FALSE ADVERTISING!!! I had to type hokedie. Thought it was fun to say. :)

yes, my bum has never been worthy of sporting HOt tiE on it...momma bought them because Jeebs would call me a hottie just to annoy her when we were dating. I just kept them forever because they were comfortable sweatpants, but whenever I wear them I was so self conscious trying to cover my bum if I was outside. Now that my 6 year old baby boy can read them, they are IN THE TRASH!! hehehe
