A Funny!

I took the kids to Portage yesterday to shop for shoeboxes. Our first stop was Canadian Tire. The kids were not into the groove of shopping right off the bat and so I needed to remind them a number of times to "get out of the way", "move the cart", "move a little faster"...in other words my patience was running low. At the checkout Dexter wasn't moving the cart the way I wanted, and I have no clue what I said to him, but I think I basically moved the cart myself, taking it away from him. As we were standing in line waiting, the guy in front of me said something to me that sounded like "be nice to your brother", and so I said "pardon me?", and he tells me again, "you should be nice to your brother". I laughed. The guy was maybe 65ish, and I couldn't believe that he would think that Dexter was my little brother. We had a good laugh about it in the van. Though it might no have been that funny had he told me to be nice to my kid...and it wasn't like I was being a mean mother! He just didn't want the sister bullying her brother, I guess! Raquel had gone to look for Jeziah somewhere else in the store, so he never saw the other 2 kids with me. Just about as bad as the time when we went to pick up Henry at a Richie Brother Sale and the security guy thought Raquel was the mother in the backseat! I seriously think that guy needed his eyesight checked.
