You know your kids aren't quite the same as others when...
Your elder daughter rings you and says " Mummy, I've just been to Asda and they had no pesto and when I came out there was a man weeing just outside the shop. What kind of a place doesn't sell pesto?"
And in another supermarket, in another town, your son says in a proud and happpy voice "Oh God that's brilliant, a free glass with the Budweiser, that means me and Johnny have the same glass, how good is that?"
So I have a daughter who doesn't gee her ginger at men weeing in the street and a son in the throes of a bromance.
Help me, Lucy Abigail, you're my only hope.

About Me
- auntiegwen
- When I started this blog in 2007 I was a single parent with 3 children aged 14, 11 and 10. Now in 2016, every one of those children has grown up and left home. I now live with my lovely best friend, my second and last husband and fellow blogger Mr Adventures in Reality and part of the time with the boy wonder, the one he made earlier. We try and outwit the offspring, do the house up and travel as much as we can.

"Gee her ginger"? Did you just make that phrase up? :O)
Absolutely brilliant (about the pesto, I mean!) You should be a very proud mummy!
They sound quite normal to me...better than mine at that age.
Oh and by the way I awarded you the Versatile Blogger Award. If you pop over to mine you'll have to scroll down a bit as I've done a couple of posts since that one. Sorry...I should have mentioned it here before.
No pesto?! Dear God, is she living in some kind of Dickensian nightmare?
I am laughing so much at this - thanks for cheering me up :)
Hope Lucy hasn't dyed her hair.....and 'gee her ginger'???
You are beyond help. Or at least your children are!

Hilarious!!! That's kids for ya!!
They just know they have their priorities straight don't they?? Ha!
Hugs

My children are like that in Asda - TERRIFIED in fact! Can't find anything they want....pesto included - it's my daughter's favourite thing in the world. Lx
I can't even follow the comments of my teens. The texts from the Queenager are all over the place!
Lolly - no, my mum always said it, I thought it was a weegie one?
AM - you know proud's a word I don't often get to use about my children...
Ayak - ooh thank you, I will pop over and say thanks properly
Andy - yeah Northampton, doesn't even have a Starbucks, the deprivation of it
Nickie - send your address love and I'll pop them round, no, don't thank me, it's my pleasure
Libs - oh you so know my strong willed wean did dye her hair, and she loves it, I think it's not as nice as her own but who ever listens to their mother?
NB - I know, what damage have I inflicted?
SueAnn - but mine are just plain weird
Lu - my daughter is not keen on Asda but as she has no job it's all she can afford
EM - I know, I just don't even try to understand now, much better for my peace of mind I'm sure
