Three big brothers wield big influence

January 21, 2009 Leave a Comment

I don’t know any other 5 year olds who can sing along with the Rolling Stones and recognize Paramore when they are on the radio.
I don’t know any other 5 year olds who say things like, “Dude! That’s tight!”
I don’t know any other 5 year olds who would rather sit through almost 3 hours of Transformers than watch SpongeBob. (Although he’s a favorite as well.)
Big brothers need to constantly watch what they say and what they do, because SpongeGrant absorbs it all.
Friends of the family have a little guy, Jack, who just turned 5. He and Grant have been thick as thieves whenever they get together at a family function, so Jack wanted Grant to attend his party. It was at one of those Pump It Up places, where it’s all inflatable slides, jumpers, etc.
Grant had a great time, but I was a little embarrassed when my little bruiser yelled “You scream like a Girl!” at a little boy going down a slide. How do you un-ring that bell?
oy.
