Trolled by a 5 year old who can read

So, I'm sitting here lookin at internet stuff and Child 2 is sitting in my lap watching TV. I go to visit my awesome friend the mrs and encounter the perfectly delightful picture of a giraffe that she has drawn....

One day? When she's famous? And she writes her memoirs? She will be forced to mention me.

Child 2 sees it and says "AWWWWW! Look a the giraffe! It's so cute!! But what is he saying?"

I read to him: "I'm the tallest mammal on earth."

Him: What else is he saying?

Me: That's it, that's all he's saying.

Him: No, there's more after that. What does it say?

Me: Grownup stuff. Okay, let's move on, nothing to see here....

Him: Ssssssssssssssuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Me: NOOO!!!!!

Him: uuuuuuuuucccckkkkkk on that wwwwwwwwww

Me: OH, GOD, NO! STOP READING! STOP!!

Him: wwwwwworrrrrrrllddddddd. It says "Suck on that world!"

Me: STOP BEING ABLE TO READ, YOU'RE FREAKING ME OUT. *

* Dramatization. May not have happened.

Hahaha I hate when they learn to read and spell. A lot of the parental fun ends at that point.

So funny! I had Ashlyn read a text message to me yesterday because I was driving. Unfortunately she now wants to know what "WTF" stands for. Oops.

Crap. This stresses me out. My daughter is 5 and I just know spelling out fun swear words to other adults isn't going to last much longer.

Hmmm....if I had known at age 5 that I could tell the world to suck it, climbing the elementary school social ladder would've been a lot less painful. So really you are doing her a favor. That is, until you get called into the principal's office because your kid sassed at her teacher. Crap. I guess I didn't think this cunning plan through.

BAHAHAHA - that's awesome. I'm finding myself turning into my grandmother - I spell out so many things now so the boys can't understand me. I'm screwed when they learn to spell.

And 21stcenturymrs, I loooove your drawings :)

My son is aware of my blog and therefore I am glad that I was mostly a PG-13 rate blogger. He can read and has often said let's look at your blog. I just hope he's not telling everyone about it.

Give it up mom! He's already there. Just make sure he's not clicking on the blog and you'll be fine - especially the little tab that says "The Dive Bar."

Any 5yo that says "Suck on that" in a contextual manner is a badass lil 5yo.

And that's coming from a daddy with a 5yo. I'd laugh if my son said that. And then I'd put him in time out. =p

Hilarious

Don't you just hate when they start figuring you out?

My husband and I used to spell things to one another and my son at age 3 said "When we get home I am going to get out my magnet letters and find out what you guys are saying."

heeee

that is all

Oh yeah. That's an awesome feeling. My oldest caught me writing a status update about something he did. He was all like, "mom, really?" Dude. Stop reading over my shoulder. Little bastard. Okay, just kidding. I don't call my kids bastards. To their faces anyway...

I just had a similar experience the other day when I spelled a word to my mom and my 7 yo son figured out what I had spelled before my 65 yo mother could. I keep saying life would be easier if my kids were stupid, like me!

Yeah, I had to FORBID my 12-year-old nephew from reading my blog. He was all, "Yeah, like I would. You know I hate to read." Now I'm thinking about forcing him to.

This is happening with my 6yo right now, too. I expect her to start reading steamy novels and Jerry Springer transcripts soon.

LOL - I so remember when my kids could first read, and they would say things like "Mum, you told me that sign said 'No Kids Allowed'" Ooops - at least you didn't lie about what it said. Thanks for making me laugh. I am passing on the "Stylish Blogger Award" to you. You can pick up the badge from my blog. Sorry, but it comes with rules. You can find the them (or ignore them) on my post for the letter V. (the link is in the comment luv)
