New “Father Of The Year” Candidate
“So, here’s how Sam became the proud owner of the Sofia the First DVD. On Saturday, the kids and I headed to Wal-Mart to get diapers, before picking up Erin at the Fine Arts Center. We are in line, and there is a display of Sofia DVDs next to the line. Sam says “Oh boy, Sofia the First…I love Sofia the First….can I get this movie?” And I say, “No Sam, we have more than enough movies right now”…which is very true. Then, the following dialogue:
MORON IN GAMCOCK POLO SHIRT AND BRAIDED BELT: “And those are girl movies.. you don’t want to grow up like a mommy, you want up to be like daddy.”
ME: “Actually, I just want him to grow up to be whatever he is supposed to be…and if that’s a boy that likes princess movies then great.”
MORON: “You don’t think that will make him funny?”
ME: “I sure hope so”
MORON: “I don’t mean that kind of funny, I mean he might like other boys.”
ME: “And I’d love him just as much.. and he’d probably smell better as a teenager”
Moron moves to another line
Old Lady Behind Me In Line: “Let me buy that movie for him. You just made my day.”
And this is how Same came to own Sofia the First”
