One of my nephews (my husband and I have no children, but between us we have over 90 nieces and nephews!!!) is 7 years old and is preparing for his First Communion. He is a bright young man.
Now, this is the same young man that two years ago, when his big sister had her First Communion and one of the Altar boys was bringing the crucifix down the asile, nudges my husband and stage whispers "Who's the dead guy on the stick?!?"
Also the same said child who, while his mother, grandmother and I were looking for his "Harry Potter" costume in a rather large costume warehouse, came sashying across the open floor wearing the fake "saggy boobies w/ hard nips" and fake "ghetto onion booty" saying, "Hellooooooo, dahling! How are yooooooou?" (His mother tried to play it off by 'yelling' at me, "LOOK AT WHAT YOUR SON IS WEARING!!!" )
Also he has recently realized that one of his cousins and said cousins' gf (who are living togeter) are not really married. His appraisal of the situation is "First you meet, then you kiss, then you date, then this" (here he smacks his hands together very loudly and rubs them together) and then you move in together and get married." Personally, his parents and the rest of the family are too scared to even ask what the hand smacking means......! *shudder
His latest: Since he is attending instruction for his First Communion, he's been learning new words. His newest word? VIRGIN! Here's the scenario: "Mom, what's a virgin?" Mom pauses everything and cringes "Well, *sigh a virgin is a lady that's never had a baby." Mom feels rather proud of herself and her explaination. Why open up a WHOLE nother can of worms?? My nephew thinks for a few moments......."Yeah, but Mom, what about the Virgin Mary!!"
Kids are just too smart for their own good!
