My...that boy is getting too old, too fast!

Mom: " Blake, what do you want for lunch tomorrow?"
Blake: " A PB&J and juice."
Mom: " ok, what else?"
Blake: "Ummmm...nothing."
Mom: "Honey, you have to have something else along with your sandwich. How about chips and a yogurt?"
Blake: "yeah, chips are good, but not the yogurt."
Mom: "Why not? I thought you loved yogurt?" "You were the one who asked me to buy the yougrt!" (FYI- the yogurt containers have Diego on them.)
Blake: " I know, but all the boys laugh and say I like Diego?!"He says with a smirky grin on his face. " Could you buy yogurt without Diego on it please?!"

It was so sad and so hilarious at the same time. He is only seven and is being affected by "image!" How stupid! It's yogurt people...not to mention the fact that the container gets thrown in the trash anyway! Whatev!

Tell him to rub some dirt on it. When I was his age, a couple of kids pinned me to the ground and wanted to punch me because I believed in Santa Claus. It'll be a learning experience for him.

p.s. I've heard Diego creates a horrible self-image...didn't you know?

I seriously hate "image" and that it's infiltrating the innocent lives of kids. dumb. dumb. dumb.
