Spencers

So, it’s pretty safe to say that my parenting choices can be questionable, at best.  And last night was no different.  My little family of three spent the evening at the mall (of course) and we had a mission.  I needed to pick up a few things for my sister-in-law’s bachelorette party.  We ended in up at Spencers.  This store has the ability to even make me blush but apparently my child enjoys its ambiance.

I’m sure you are wondering why I brought my child into a store like this.  And I have no real answer for you.  I’m still trying to figure that out as well.

Any who, while I was browsing the bachelorette section of the store (You know which section I’m talking about- the one with the shot glasses that light up and the necklaces covered with plastic replicas of male genitalia. Don’t act like you have never browsed in this section and don’t know what I’m talking about.).

While I was browsing, apparently, so was my three year old.  Chase was standing next to a young couple while he spotted a sucker.  A sucker of a- for lack of better words- man jewels.  Chase looks over at the couple and says, “I want that.  I want to lick it.”  The couple both looked at each other and burst out laughing.  All I could do was look at them and say, “I know, I know, this is inappropriate,” as I hung my head in shame and walked away (with a penis sucker in hand of course).

I completely understand bringing my three year old into this store may not have been a suitable parenting choice, but Chase really does enjoy suckers and his man jewels, so I could see why he wanted the tasty treat.  

On a side note, the store also sports disco lights and my child enjoys dancing under the lights yelling, “I like to dance like my mama.”  I am hoping he is talking about a different mama.
