me: Hey, buddy! It's the Memorial Day holiday weekend! We're going to the beach tomorrow!
10-year-old: Oh, wow. It's summer now? We're going to the beach?
me: Yeah! Are you excited?
10-year-old: cool. So are we gonna see the 4th of July fireworks?
me: Yeah... no. So, buddy... what month is it now?
10-year-old: May.
me: And the "4th of July" is in what month?
10-year-old: um.... Oooooooooooohhhhhh....

ReplyDeletewhen my husband was sign-painting we used to get magazines filled with pictures of crazy signs, sometimes don't you just wonder what goes through peoples heads?
Seriously, is it just a boy thing? (I sometimes call it a "doy!" thing.)
ReplyDeleteFunny, I had this same exact conversation with my husband over the weekend!
ReplyDeleteTotally kidding! It wasn't exactly the same. My husband didn't know what month it was. ;)
Here too, summer must mean fireworks to kids... and Rachel's husband.
ReplyDeleteWe have a sign in our town that reads "LEFT TURN OLNY" It's been there for years!
ReplyDeleteAnd I always call Easter, Halloween. It's a candy holiday.
