What the Freak?!

Yeah that's right. I just used a Utah original term, because here in Utah people are very conscience of saying expletives around the millions of kids in this state and because it sounds better on a post than saying, "What the F@#$!"

So, we are walking through Target yesterday and Ethan casually asks me, "Mom, what's sexy?"

"Uhhhh, I'm not sure how to explain that to you at this point in your life. Where did you here that?"

"On a commercial, 'Get that sexy V-shaped figure you've always wanted.' "

"Oh, well it's kind of like you're saying someone or something looks nice but it a different kind of Oooh La La way." And then I did a kiss-y face at him.

He grimaced and turned away.

What the freak is the FCC thinking putting on this stupid age-in appropriate material during my kids' cartoons?

That's not the only "What the Freak?!" story I have. Look at this face. Does this look like the face of someone who would intentionally take a dump on the sidewalk in front of my door? I didn't think so, but apparently I was wrong. She did.



This is how the story unfolded. We had just gotten back from swimming at a friends house and I was starting dinner. I told the kids to go outside.

"Take off your suits and brush off the grass!"

I hear nothing and then Ethan hysterically laughing. The naughty laugh.

"What the freak?!" I think to myself.

I walk out there and there's cute little Evie smiling up at me next to a little Evie S*#$.

I freaked. I started slapping her butt and dragged her into the bathroom to finish in there. Don't judge please. That's a normal reaction right????

That's the funniest post I"ve read in a while. Working at the preschool, I hear that naughty laugh a lot. It's amazing when you can automatically tell the difference even without seeing anything. Good luck with the sexy talk. Sounds like you diffused the situation perfectly.

This made me giggle. (sorry)

Beck pulled one side of his shirt down to expose his shoulder and walked around saying, "I'm sexy, I'm sexy!"
Dude. He's three.
What the freak?

And you didn't call me to tell this precious bit of information? Seriously, I just laughed out loud. Sorry, but I did.

Get used to the sexy talk. It just gets better the more they're in school. You have to have "the talk" when they're 8. Count the days. It's really fun.

Thanks for the laugh! I would have reacted the exact same way :) I feel like I haven't seen you forever. I miss my friend.

I hope you got poop on your hands. Abusive parent. The only thing better is when they rub their own feces all over themselves. ~Erik

Guilty of the giggle, as well. I have a sexy story too but I'm gonna post it on the blog so it will be remembered in the family archives. Glad not to have any poop on the sidewalk stories although I believe anyone with kids could probably tell some sort of poop related stories. I feel for ya!

Evelyn! And Ethan! SEXY? POOP! All in one post. It's just too much. You know I have a huge beef with the media slipping crap into what we watch anyway. So young. It's scary to think of what kids are exposed to.

You sound pretty normal to me:)

Oh, Heavens.
I see you're surviving well without me. :-)
I'm gonna pretend I'm not feeling a little bit smug.

Om My gosh!! Seriously!! Thank you so much, I really needed that laugh!!! Wow, that was awesome, I think it will officially make me smile for the rest of the day. And yes, perfectly good reaction, and I do believe Ive been asked the same question by Blaize, and yes it is a tuffy, but you did good. Always a joy to read your post! Happy poop scooping! LOL
