It's Always the Quiet Ones

So as many of the four readers of my blog know, my older son has been, how shall we say, "inspired" with his choice of behavior this year. But many of you wonder, hey, what's up with the little one?

Max is turning three in one month. He is cute, friendly, and completely normal. Or so I thought.

Tonight I was reading a book to him while he was on the potty. At the end of the book (Do Pirates Take Baths? if you must know!) the pirates are dreaming of their mothers'. So I ask Max very sweetly if he dreams of me. He says no. So I then as if he dreams of pirates. He says no. So I ask what he dreams about?

Max is obsessed with Velma from Scooby Doo. He makes me call him Velma, and he calls me Freddy when I drive our minivan. Every time we pass First Baptist of Spartanburg, Max looks for the "Mystery Machine", which is really the Hangar Z Christian Scion car.

So, my sweet, sweet little boy tells me that he dreams of Velma. I smile. Then he tells me that he dreams of "fighting her down!" I still smile. He then tells me he kills Velma and throws money on her.

What the fuck?

So apparently my soon to be three year-old dreams of being a killer pimp????

    That is too funny!!!! He looks so sweet and innocent. HAHAHAHAHA! Fooled ya.

    Hell he probably saw a commercial for one of these “Grand Theft Auto” or some such crap. Or his subconscious has found a way to deal with his frustration instead of directing it outward. I know when I have been totally stressed out I have had dreams where I was being chased/hunted and had to end up killing the person to save myself. Wake up feeling weird as hell, but strangly relieved!

    Make sure my baby girl never really meets your boys! heeheehee. Bless your heart. I love that you children are so well rounded like you. Don’t worry I am sure madi is going to do some very scary and insane things too. Maybe he wants privacy on the potty and it disturbs him that you read pirate stories to him. hahahahaha.
    i love ya!!

  • I’m going to agree with Jennifer on this one – Give the little dude some privacy! Oh and tell him that Daphne on Scooby Doo is actually the one to kill. There are far too many vapid and vacuous chicks out there.
