Enter The Valley Boy

Something else is new with Declan this week besides the snotty nose. A word it took me YEARS to drill out of my vocabulary.

Like.

And not “I like you.” But the extraneous use of the word. As in: “The water in the tub was, like, this deep.” And: “I saw Trudy at school this week and she was, like, so happy to see me.” Or: “Mama, didn’t you used to drive Oma, like, crazy when you talked this way?”

He has been back at his old daycare for ONE week. One.

I am going to hunt down the little 5 year old Deborah Foreman wanna-be responsible for this shit and kick her little 5 year old ass.
