Cruel Woman

I admit it, I'm a cruel woman. Having lived with men my entire life, exclusively for the past 20 or so years, I am hyper-aware of the protective feelings they have for their...ummm, you know, boy parts (giggle).

So last night when #7, zipping up his sleeper, doubled over and yelled, "It hurts! It's got me! It's hurting me!" I should have called upon my tender mother love and handled the situation with concern and sensitivity.

Instead, cruel female creature that I am, I started giggling like a twelve year old in the male undies department at K-mart.

"It's not funny Mom, you're mean!" #7 glared at me, he cuddled to sleep with Daddy!

"Yes, #7, I am mean, a mean cruel woman, giggle."

Oh heck yeah. Anything goes wrong in "man land" and the world is turned inside out. Push a baby outta your hoohah and no one bats and eye!

Okay, I am a little worried, Did you really giggle at underwear in K-Mart when you were 12. My youngest boy is proud to call them the "FAMILY JEWELS". Boys they just kill me.

I was in the shower one day when a 2 year old Lion got some delicate bits stuck in his CIRCULAR SAW. I was screaming at him TAKE YOUR HAND OFF THE TRIGGER! (yes in panic he squeezed the trigger tighter) as I tried to dry myself enough to not slip over.

2 lessons Lion has learnt, hand beaters and circular saws should not be used naked.

I laughed too (once he was free), he didnt.

I must be mean too, because I have to say that I laughed out loud and then said "poor little guy" and then laughed again.

I worked on the urology floor at the hospital and I promise that a man's brain turns to mush if anything is wrong with the property. So many times I walked out snickering to myself. One nurse used to say that that's where their brain was located. Poor men, so sensitive.
