OK, so I am sure that you all know that Darcie has been spending her past couple of days at Disney World (yes, again…). That leaves her blog open and available for me to hijack.  And hijack it I will. I am going to hijack it because, well, because sharing is caring.  And something like this must be seen to be believed.

I was driving home with all the kids, minding my own business and talking to the girls about something wholesome…when all of a sudden, I noticed a large RV on the side of the highway.  My mouth flew open and I immediately knew I had to turn around.  Not just did I turn around, but I ordered the girls to pull out their phones for a quick picture.  The first pass was unsuccessful, as the image didn’t come out clearly on a camera phone.  Fortunately…there was a camera in the car.  This obviously required another pass and the picture was captured.  Score!

Unfortunately, in the midst of all of this, I neglected to consider the follow-on question that was sure to arise.  Take a look at the picture, and then I think you’ll understand.

See, I take full advantage of being a man as the girls are growing up.  I can defer the birds and bees, the monthly visitor, and other uncomfortable topics to her with a clear conscience.  I know that one day this will come back and haunt me as Jayce grows up and she plays the gender card with me.  But today…I set myself up without Darcie blissfully in Disney World as opposed to sitting by my side ready for me to pass this topic on to.  So the girls, quietly humoring me all this time, turn and ask the question as I am still gloating about nailing the picture of the year – ‘uh…what is sodomy?’  Wow.  Yea, so I give the Webster definition (even using the word Anal as opposed to Butt).  Fortunately, this was obviously not a topic that the girls wanted to discuss any further with me and they let it go.  I have no idea what I would have said if they asked why…

We have seen that RV!! Did you see the guy standing outside of it? I usually speed by it so the boys don’t ask… Can you imagine Jack with that information?

Poor Kennedy and Torri… Thankfully, mom will be home soon.

Becca, yea, the guy was standing there with a big grin. I honestly stopped right in front of him so Torri could snap the picture!

Yeah, now see, I would have kept on going, knowing that the question was coming…

It reminds me of when the kids asked how the babies “get out”. I told them. They laughed. Then there was dead silence as they pondered that one…

Oh sweet husband of mine, thanks ever so much for posting to my blog without my knowledge or approval. Most of all though? Thanks for driving a whole *new* set of google searchers here to the spot. Really. How could I ever repay you?

NIIICCEE! Good call on stopping for the photo; now imagine me doing the same thing, but with David in the car. Your next mission is to go find the “Pro” RV.

And I thought those “things” that hang from truck hitches were rude and too much of a road distraction.

LOL! I bet it was a pain in the butt getting that picture. Thanks for amusing Darcie’s readers.

HA! Only in AZ, huh? Although sounds like he gets around. I too, am lucky enough to defer “The Talk”, having only boys. SCORE!
