Last Thursday was Devin’s birthday, and on Friday morning he went to Knott’s Berry Farm with 3 of his friends… 2 boys and 1 girl. Maddie, he assured me, was a friend. Just a friend. Not a girlfriend.
I dropped the kids off at 10:00 a.m. and the plan was to pick them up close to 9:00 or so that evening.
I got a call from Devin around 5:00, asking to be picked up. They had seen and done everything and they were ready to come home. (Knott’s is pretty small.) They wanted to hang out at someone’s house and watch a movie.
Problem: no one’s parents would be home for quite a while, our house included.
Personally, I have a policy of No Parent Home? Then no going to that house. I declined Devin’s request that they all be allowed to go back and hang out at our house. I ignored his claims that everything would be fine and they just wanted to hang out. Not that he’s a bad kid by any stretch of the imagination. He’s a great kid. So are his friends. It’s just policy.
At that point, cute, petite little Maddie piped up:
“If it matters, I’m not attracted to any of these guys at all. Just puttin’ that out there.”
I laughed my butt off the whole way home and found myself liking Maddie even more.
LOL yay Maddie!
Oh haha. A heartbreaker. Did any of the guys have a crush on her?
Hilarious!
Smart girl! That sorta sounds like something you would say!!

Maybe….Maddie likes girls. Just sayin’.
Ha ha ha! I’m laughing at what Connie said. 🙂
I’ve seen your boy, why wouldn’t she be attracted??
That’s funny she said that.
LOL!!!
Good for her!!
hahaha! I like Maddie too!
That is funny but you are a smart mom because her not being into the guys and them not being into her could lead to even more daredevil kind of stuff. I always thought guys acted better when they were trying to impress me.
bahahha! she is a scream! she is going to be one to keep around!
Too funny!
Hi Maddie, you’re a SAINT!
Maddie will go far!
Go Maddie.
Don’t leave anything for speculation.
“puttin’ that out there”…what a hoot!
HA HA! too funny!!
But did you let them hang out at your house? ;P
Maddie sounds like she’s got personality!
Nice guns! And not a shabby job of stickin to them either.

I have a similar policy. The girls can only have certain friends over when I’m not home and NEVER BOYS!
Love that girl! Too funny!
So funny. What a spunky girl!
XOOX

Does Maddie need her eyes checked??? I just saw your boy’s pic from the previous post and he is verrrryyyy good-looking. Silly girl!
We need more Maddies.
I love that…too funny!!! Happy Birthday to your guy last week!
Haha. I’m glad she finds them so unattractive. That’s what us moms really want anyhow. hahaagain.
She said that? I LOVE this girl.
That’s hilarious. I love it! Good policy BTW. It will be ours too.
