I got to watch Ethan play cricket again yesterday. I also got to sit next to a bunch of older, snoby moms.
Well, they came across as a bunch of snobs because:
a) They were moaning that their STAFF had probably finished all their bread
b) They were phoning their STAFF to tell them what to make for dinner (I can't even begin to imagine having someone make my supper *sigh*)
c) They all sat their at their son's cricket match working on their little laptops
d) When Ethan came on the bowl they all started whispering about his shoes... "shame, poor boy, having to wear those shoes... shame, they're slipping off his feet". This made me embarrased and mad at the same time. Ethan lost yet another pair of his white takkies so I sent him to cricket in slip-ons... which by the way, he said were VERY comfy and didn't slip off.
They have a way of making you feel less then.... but then I look across at my beautiful son and he blows me a kiss and all is right with the world once again.
Awesome!
