The scene: In the car, on way to orchestra rehearsal
The cast: Suse, Son #1
(Disclaimer: Please note I hate the word cute. We do this tongue in cheek).
Suse: Oh look, a flock of baby goats! Brown! Cuuute!
Son #1: Hummmph. Yeah.
Suse: Oh look, a rabbit! Black! Cuuuute!
Son #1: Hummmph. Yeah.
Pause. The car rounds a bend and we come upon a lithe, tanned blonde nineteenyear old, complete with pink iPod, jogging. (Effortlessly).
Son #1: Oh look, a jogger! Blonde! Cuuuute!

LOL! Cute ;)
just out of curiosity, how old is your son? =)
is time to notice that sort of thing already?! I'm covering my boy's eyes!
And you wonder why Son #2 writes dirty words on your computer when you're not looking: you Hussy!!
Don't you just want to stop them from growing up sometimes? I just hope he was speaking with tongue in cheek! No. Sigh.
He's a pre-teen (see title of post). Twelve years of age.
And his tongue was firmly in his cheek. At least it was until he burst out laughing ...
Oh dear, oh dear! And oh so many more years of this to come!
He and Youngest would be fast friends.
And so it begins.....
My girl's pulled a similar stunt on me, just enough to make me laugh....a little uncertainly.
i have no sons, or daughters for that matter
but my nieces and nephews are treated as such
and your boy-kid sounds as cool-wonderful as "my" boy-kid now all grown up, sorta!!
My NINE year old has begun to realize that girls are not nearly as objectionable as he had once supposed.
A while back, a girl in a bikini went through the hotel lobby where we were spending a couple of days and you should have seen Numbah One Son discreetly giving her the up-and-down. He practically made scanner noises.
-J.
oh. my. well, then. you have fun with that.
and jogging? effortlessly? hate her.
fabulous!
Uh-oh....fasten your seatbelt.
The jogger would have probably thought the whole thing cute as well. :p
Hee! Suggest the next time you are driving behind a 'school' of racing cyclists wearing their gorgeous lycra ( mmmmmmm), you mutter cuuuuuute!
Um, men in lycra don't do it for me I'm afraid.
Gee that made me laugh!! I do envy you though with 3 future teenage sons. Sure your food bill will be more than mine but you wont have the moodiness I am destined to have. I am sure it will be loads of laughs and new swear words....really I am envious.
He's got his mum's sense of humour. Sounds like a great kid.
No lycra huh?
Thanks for the laugh.
