HIGH MAINTENANCE.....

So, I pack a lunch for Mason yesterday and forget to put in a drink. Oops! It was one of those "bad mom" moments. I felt bad about it all day and wondered what the poor dear would do....he is my THIRSTY boy and can drink 5 cups of liquid with each meal and a zillion more inbetween meals. Would he be brave enough to go through the lunch line and BUY a drink with his lunch account number? Or would he just go thirsty and be cursing my name all through lunch? Hummmm....

When he gets home from school I say to him, "Hey Mase, I'm so sorry I didn't put a drink in your lunch. What did you do?"

He simply replies, "Oh mom, don't worry about it. I'm always really hot and sweaty at school and so when that happens I have a lot of spit....so I just kept swallowing my spit at lunch. It worked fine!"

GROOOOOOOSS!! What a typical boy though, huh? It's a good thing he's NOT high maintenance!

That is hillarious! It is moments like that when I am happy for my two boys...sometimes I think one girl aka high maintenance drama queen is all I can handle. you gotta love the simplicity of a boy.

Too funny! It will be interesting to see how Kaia copes with stuff like that. She is our creative genius on problem solving.
