The Meanest of Them All


Last Wednesday, Blake and I went to a play at the local children's theatre. We went with his preschool and saw Hansel and Gretel.

I loathed it.

The screaming and fighting between the two children in the play, was so annoying. The thought of paying money to watch two children pick on each other was more than I could handle. At least I could have yelled back if it was my own kids!!!

After the play, Blake and I decided to get hot chocolate. We were debriefing our "theatrical experience" and I asked him what he thought of all of the fighting between the siblings. He said he didn't think it was very nice. (One point for Mommy)

Then he says, "Mommy. Did the lady who played the mommy in the play, did she also play the witch?"

"Yes Blake, she was the same actress."

"Sometimes the lady who played the mommy got mad when she was the witch."

"Hmm...you are right." I replied.

"Mommy. Sometimes you get mad. Are you a witch?"
