I don't know how many of you are familiar with the MTV show "Punk'd", it may not be on anymore. It was a Candid Camera knock off hosted by Demi Moore's boy toy Ashton Kutchner. Anyway enough of the background info: I believe this is really what is happening to me. My sons, Dax (8) & Tel (2) are constantly doing random, weird things that I don't believe any other person on the planet does--and this is normal to them.
First thing this morning I was reading the newspaper, online, when Tel walks in with a fisher price guitar (about 10 inches long) and asks if I want him to sing to me. (Picture a short blond Don Ho with the ukulele) I didn't have time to answer when he began strumming the guitar and singing "My name is Tel, let's go mom! dun, dun, dun dun dun... I am Iron Man, dun nu nun nun nu nu nun... Whooo Hooooo! (insert leg kick)" Are any of you familiar with Black Sabbath? I don't think my two year old should/would be. I am now waiting for Ashton to come into my house and tell me that I have been punk'd and cart the little actors away.
Dax is also famous for his punk'd moments. I have far too many pictures of Dax as an infant, one for every new outfit! I didn't pose him just snapped--we are ever so lucky to have a 2 month pic of Dax laying on a couch and shit you not he is flipping the bird. YOU'VE BEEN PUNK'D! Another "are you kidding me moment" was when Dax had just celebrated his 8th birthday and had received a lot of money for presents--he was $20 short of $100. I asked my hubbie if he had any cash so he preceded to open his wallet to give me some. (As a preface: I want to let you know that Dax is a very polite and grateful child. He doesn't take his life, family, or possessions for granted--I really couldn't ask for a nicer kid.) Dax watched the whole thing and as Jesse pilfered through the bills Dax asked politely "hey Dad will you just give me a 20?" We were flabbergasted!! WTF: "just a 20", we just laughed thinking he was being a smart ass. Dax became stern and said in his most serious tone "all I want is a 20, just give me one". You've been Punk'd.
