Out of the mouths of babes....
As the old saying goes...
Last Friday my 9 yeasr old neice commented on a commercial she saw on TV.
Now a little back history of the person involved.
My youngest brother "BOB" is a true grump, a pure curmugeon, a real "glass-is-half-empty" kind of guy.
Now "Julia' saw a commercial for MIDOL, that explaining how this product helps eleviate the symptoms related to your "period".
Keep in mind that she's only 9, and hasn't experienced that, or been exposed to that. (all the nieces are around the same ag range, so when they'll all be able to comiserate when the time comes).
Julia sees the commercial, not fully understanding what a "period" was, but understanding the symptoms associated with it, and turns to Uncle "BOB" and asks "What do you do when you have your period Uncle Bobby?"
Needless to say my mother, Julia's grandma, couldn't contain herself and laughed herself to tears. WHen I heard this, I thought it was hillarious, mainly because we always joke about Bob being "on the rag" with his negativity.
So, as I said, out of the mouths of babes come pearls of wisdom!!
