Why on earth...


Wed. night there were three baptisms at the church. After the baptisms there were your typical refreshments...I think there were two relief society sisters in the kitchen getting things all set up. In our building there are big heavy curtain things that open up from the Relief Society room into the kitchen so you can be standing in the RS room and get refreshments from the kitchen counter. (Does that make sense?) Anyway...the curtains were open so we could see into the kitchen but neither me or Andy were paying any attention to the kitchen as we were visiting with the family that had the baptisms. Alex was in sight but Eric was not...he isn't the kind of kid you really need to worry about if he isn't right under your nose. All of a sudden there was a ruckus coming from the kitchen. In an exaggerated way imagine if a fox got into a hen house! Apparently as these ladies in the kitchen were getting things set up Eric went in and spanked each one of them on their BUTTS. What is a mother supposed to do?? How do you even react to that?? Why on earth would he spank these women's butts?!? They are both definitely over 50 and are Grandma's...not old old but old enough to definitely fear them. WHY WOULD HE DO THAT?? One of the ladies laughed and said he's been spending too much time with his papa but the other lady (so I've heard) was NOT HAPPY about it.

I think I'd rather the ruckus coming from the kitchen be that my child got into the brownies than have him spanking peoples butts.

When I asked him why he did that he said "Well Mommy, YOU spank MY butt."

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! How do I even respond to that?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Anna that is HILARIOUS...I'm sorry...I probably shouldn't laugh...but who were the ladies?? Obviously one is able to take a joke and realize he's like "Papa Bob"...but the other one...needs to calm down!! He's a kid...and he'll do silly things...don't know what to say or do to that though...good luck with that!! Made me laugh though!!
Love you guys!!
