Socially Inappropriate or Just Honest?

Gus and I have been playing a little game where he pretends to carry me on his back (like I do for him sometimes) and he collapses under my weight. This came about because I said he couldn’t possibly carry me.
This morning, he took my hands and slung them around his shoulders and tried to start the game again. When he collapsed I said, “What’s the matter am I too heavy?”
“Yes!”
After a laugh, I replied, “You’re supposed to say, ‘No, Mommy! You’re light as a feather!’”
Then I explained how he should never tell a woman she’s heavy; it would hurt her feelings.
“But some of them are!”
I can’t really argue with that.
I’ll have a more useful post later in the week after I finish with a monster deadline. In the meantime, feel free to browse this blog & if you like it, why not subscribe?
Have a great day!!
Aren’t they funny when they’re being painfully honest? I imagine my son having girls asking them ‘how do I look’ and him responding with not so flattering details…LOL
