MOM, CAN WE GET..........?

Every Parent has taken their kids shopping to hear those dreaded words over and over and over again. Can we get; can I have;

The only thing you want to get them is a muzzle.

My wife and I went to Sam's Club yesterday and of course the "Can we get's ?" began. After what seemed like a million NO's I heard the unexpected
"Mom, can we get Naked?" (and I'm sure anyone within screaming range also heard)
My wife and I both looked at each other in surprise and embarrassment. From my wife's face I could tell she was asking the same thing I was thinking "Did he just say that"? As we both looked around to see if anyone was paying attention, to our delight they all ignored us or at least acted as if they hadn't heard.

It turns out he was asking for "Naked Juice" (it's a brand apparently). We quickly denied his loud request and went on our way.

Just another glorious day in the life of a parent
