When you're back in your old neighborhood cigarettes taste so good

Yesterday I received a text from my ex-wife:

Your son just said that I need to exercise more and eat less because I'm getting bigger, not smaller.




I would say I've never been more proud of Mr M, except my ex also sent me this picture the other day:



We are simply the best parents* in the entire world.








*It's fake.

I think it's a parents job to wreck their kids- that way have something to look forward to when they grow up.

Excellent picture and fabulous comment. My two best friends and I bought those fake cigs when we were younger and pretended to smoke them while we were in Narragansett, RI.

It is a fond memory.

Dude you guys are awesome parents because your kids, even though they are not yet even teenagers trust you guys enough to let photographs of them smoking come into your posession. They love you guys SO much and trust you completely not to put it up on the internet or anything even though you both have BLOGS, plus they are witty just like their parents. . You guys are the best!

If that's a fake, then it's a well-executed fake. Nice Photoshop work. And you also have to admire his simplicity in that statement - every effective.

Thanks for all the comments about how "painfully cute" my kid is. And I probably wouldn't have posted it if my ex-wife didn't tell me too. Then, Mr M saw me uploading this and said, "I love that picture." That's a little worrisome.

$2, the picture itself is real, it's just one of those fake cigarettes. I bought a pack for my Halloween costume, and gave the rest to my kids, thinking they'd have them for about a week and they'd lose them. Not so. They still pull them out from time to time. Hopefully they're not dumb enough to try the real thing.
