The Rock Star has preschool on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:00-11:00. He pretty much loves it and he's learning sooooo much. Today, when he climbed into the car and I dug through his bag to see what kind of papers he'd brought to me, I found a little piece with a drawing of an animal on it. Above it read: My Indian Name.
Not very politically correct but I still laughed.
Me: Garrett, did you pick your name or did your teachers give it to you?
G: I picked it.
Me: Did they give you a few choices or did you just come up with it off the top of your head?
G: I dust come up wit it off the top of my head.
Me: (laughing) Okay Happy Monkey.
I called Troy to tell him that our son's Native American name was Happy Monkey. He asked me to have Garrett give Little Buddy his own name.
Me: What is Matthew's Indian name?
G: Um. Quiet Spider!
Me: (into the phone) Matthew's name is Quiet Spider.
Troy: Quiet Spider?
Me: Yeah. I think it should be Noisy Spider but whatever.
Troy: Or Barking Spider.
hahaha I love it! Your son brings me joy :)
ReplyDeleteUmm, Lori, I think you posted a link to the wrong definition. I'm just saying, but I have heard that wikipedia has been known to be wrong every now and then. LOL. I had no idea there was actually a spider like that. I thought it was just a "guy" term.
ReplyDeleteDoes Matthew hiss when provoked? :)
ReplyDeleteGarrett, as always, made me smile!
