Remember, this blog is about my sitcom worthy life. Well, tonight Gabe provided an Emmy worthy episode. With his permission, I share the story. I hope you laugh as much as I did.
We went to Pittsburgh Mills tonight to get my iPhone screen replaced. We then headed to a restaurant for dinner. On the way, we drove past the movie theater entrance to the mall. I saw a picture of the new Planet of the Apes movie and commented that those movies creep me out. Grace then said, “Not me, I want to see it.” Gabe chimed in and said, “Me too.” {Ok… now here is where it gets funny!} Gabe went on to say that he too wanted to see the movie and then told us, “After all, I’m nine and in four years I’ll have my puberty (or as he pronounced it, pooh-berty).” Steven and I both did the “what did he just say look” and started to laugh when Grace said, “Gabe, puberty starts when you start to use deodorant.” Gabe responded with, “You mean I already got my pooh-berty and no one told me?” I don’t think I have ever laughed so hard. I tried to explain that using deodorant doesn’t mean you’ve started puberty. It just means you have been hot and sweaty. From there, I think I was laughing too hard to know what was being said. He was relieved to know that he hasn’t gotten his pooh-berty yet.
