Pop and I met this little boy this afternoon at the Dairy Queen. I can't remember his name, but I do remember that I started with a "C."
He actually came into the store with a bucket on his head. His dad called him "bucket-head" which made me laugh. He also called him "weird" which made me frown. I think there had to be a more creatively positive euphemism for "weird." I wonder if his parents realize that kids listen to what their parents say and remember what their parents say about them. Parental words can stick with a person long into adulthood.
frown, frown, frown.
but on the other hand, "C" sure was cute with a bucket on his head!
On a more positive note, though, people who aren't at least a little bit weird are usually just a bit too normal for me. lol
ReplyDeleteProbably not the kind of weird dad was thinking.
