Gotta Hate those Creditors!


So, it was time for Zaquel's well child check-up this month. We headed out on Wednesday. We get there and the nurse checks his eyes, height, weight, etc. We go to our room and wait for the doctor. In the mean time, I am given a developmental questionnaire. I am filling it out when I come to the part where I have to say a word and record the first thing that comes out of Zaquel's mouth. (This should be interesting was my first thought.)
So, I proceed all is well, with the words cup, table, and house. Then I say, "a fence". Zaquel says, "Something to keep creditors away". I couldn't tell if he said predators or creditors so I asked, "predators?" Zaquel answers, "Mom, you know the big mean animals?" So I say, "Oh, yes, predators." Zaquel rolls his eyes at me! The nerve of him!
The doctor finally comes in and reads over the questionnaire and stops at this question and says, "WOW Zaquel, you know about predators?" Zaquel says, "No, I said a fence is something to keep creditors away! I told you that first mom! Grown-ups never listen!"

Obviously, I need to work on my listening skills! LOL! I guess creditors could be considered big mean animals don't you?

I do love this boy of mine!
