How very wise and so sweet to be trying to look out for your tummy!
I think it might be time to buy or make some curtains!

Kids are unfiltered with truth nuggets. I heard Jason’s almost four-year old spout off “What the crap. ”

I thought exactly. Lol.

I am pretty sure kids have a lot more going on than we realize. When my nephew was about 4 he casually patted my rear end and stated “Its okay to have a big butt”. Then went about his business. I am now scared for life.

I’m pretty sure the neighbor stares at me at night!
Yikes!

Oh, teenagers don’t count in my theory. Somewhere around 13 they suddenly get hit with the dumb stick. It isn’t until they’re well into their twenties they start to make logical sense again.

My neighbor plays piano at 6 in the morning. She spent a few mornings anxiously checking in with us to make sure we weren’t being bothered. Totally not.

But I wonder what insight would come from that: “The neighbor is serenading us.” or “The neighbor is throwing music at us.”

My kids are teenagers. They mostly think they’re smarter than we are anyway. Therefore we don’t listen.

I quickly wanted to edit my post to clarify my neighbor’s part in all this. He’s done everything possible to create a physical barrier between our close suburban houses. We really have no proof that he stares at us…just paranoia on our parts, particularly when I’m outfitted in Spandex and attempting jumping jacks. Highlighted by overhead lighting, it’s like watching a train wreck. He probably can’t help himself.

I edited my post as I realized after reading your comment I painted out my neighbor as a potential pedophile. Have no reason to believe that. The hangup is entirely ours. As usual.

Hmmm…Avery might be pointing out that your neighbor is creepy. Not sure what Jackon is implying other than the obvious -Turkeys have feet. Cows have feet. Garbage cans have wheels …wow, I could spend way too much time trying to figure that one out. Thanks for the chuckle, love the things kids come up with!
