Upside Down Balloons

I have a son, named Max. If you didn’t already know that, than you must be new here. HEY WELCOME!

Max is six, and oblivious to the rules of the world. I love that. He insists I give him kisses goodbye at school. He walks with an umbrella whenever I let him. He would prefer to be wearing nothing but Transformers underwear at all times.

Last school year, for the class photo, he made himself unique as he always does. When I picked up the photos from the cubby in his classroom, I opened them up and looked for his face. It was, of course, simple to locate. When I asked the boy why he chose to make that face instead of a pleasant smile, he looked at me as though it should have been obvious, “I wanted to show the camera my upside down balloon!”

Duh, Mom. I told him it was called a uvula, but that was pointless. Can you pick him out?

Reminder, again: I updated Funny Minnesota!

    I didn’t know what either of you were talking about until I looked up uvula. I always thought it was a punching bag personally.

    Awesome, I wish I could still get away with doing things like that.

    Oh and on the topic of grow in water things, I picked up a grow your own Jesus, I can’t tell if its blasphemous or just un-intentionally hilarious.
    Thought you’d like to know.

    Josh- I gave up on the Space Needle, it really did just look like what everyone said it did.

    It’s pictures like this that make great stories to tell his girlfriend/wife later!

    And I was wondering what happened with the Space Needle!

    Dan- That’s only if I let him date, so far, the answer is not until he’s 25 😉

    You must realize that is the single most insane thing you have ever said.

    Haha, well, if that is the most insane thing, I suppose I am doing alright
