What did you say, Willis?

by Deborah Cruz

So, tonight the girls and I are walking around Target buying such lovely things as toilet paper,anti-wrinkle cream, night time diapers; you know, usual Mommy stuff. Anyways, my girls love Target ( probably because every single time we walk out of that place, of the mandatory $80 that I spend, at least half of it is on something for them). They get in there and it’s like the oxygen is enhanced with sugar because my girls are talking mile a minute and have an energy of which I’ve not seen the likes since my early 20’s….way before life had beat me into submission. So I say to them , ” Girls, cool your jets ( no idea why I’ve turned into my mother and say things like this and stuffed to the gills but I do and quite often). Apparently that is not what my 2 year old, aka the Parrot, heard. I know this because she promptly started screaming , at the top of her lungs no less, ” Girls, pull your tits!!!”WTF? I wasn’t sure if I should break into tears or laughter. My only saving grace was that she didn’t actually try to follow said instructions .Oh My, you never really know what they actually hear.

I too am addicted to Target. My two year old actually wakes up occasionally and says "Mommy, we go Target today??"

Love the new look.

@ Brittney & Bethany~ It was pretty funny , but I was mortified because hearing it out of context..God only knows what my fellow shoppers @ Target think I am teaching my girls!
@Peryl~ Thanks! I am fiddling with the layout to find something that I really like. Oh, I understand about the kids wanting to go to Target.WE have one right down the block and my girls love everything about it….especially the TOY AISLE!LOL

I have a 20 year old daughter, and when she goes into target with me, she still acts that way and she still manages to get me to buy her stuff! LOL

LMAO. It is bad enough when kids repeat the things you actually say! When they mis-repeat you…. I think you could send that one in to Reader's Digest. They have that section on the funny things kids say. I think this story get published!

My boys when they were younger use to say _uck because that is what they thought the sound of jar was when the suction was being broken.

Thanks for following my blog 🙂
I too LOVE Target. It is a magical place.
And I definitely would have laughed. I love the things that come out of kids mouths… being under the age of 6 gets you a get-out-of-jail free card when it comes to comments sometimes. Love it!
