Now I Know My Son's a Male...

As the three of us were waiting in the doctor's office for 13 to have her swimmer's ear checked (I always diagnose before they're seen and 99% of the time I'm right) I was trying to pass the time in clever fashion. Eight year old boys get bored very very quickly.
ME: "If you were a rock where would you want to live?"
You could almost see their cheeks pull as I snagged their attention. Both sprouted amused grins on their faces at such a preposterous inquiry.
8: "hehe. What do you mean?"
ME: "Well remember when we were having that picnic in the mountains last summer with ____ and ____ and ____ and we all got in the river and started jumping from rock to rock trying unsuccessfully not to get wet?"
8 and 13: "yeah?"
ME: "That's where I'd like to live if I were a rock."
From there the conversation progressed about the pros and cons of rock life in different locales. When we exhausted all things rocky my son changed the topic.
8: "(wearing a guilty grin) Know where I'd want to live if I were a shell?"
ME: "No. Where?"
8: "On a mermaid's bra."
13: "(trying not to laugh) You're gross!"
But I couldn't help myself. I laughed. We all laughed. On a mermaid's bra! What a card!
It's official, my son is a male. Lordy help me!

haha! love it! i am sort of wary of having a boy (due in Oct!) b/c i'm not sure how to deal with them as much as i am girls...but that's some funny stuff. my husband would think this story is great.
Oh boy. I had the same fascination with mermaids that your son does when I was that age. -_- I remember that movie 'Splash'. XD
That's cute. And an interesting question to keep the little ones entertained. Glad it worked! I may try it in the future...
