So my 8 year old is reading Captain Underpants. Yesterday in the book this mean teacher’s hairstyle touches this magic potion stuff. And her hair comes alive and she is a evil villain, Wicked Wedgie Woman! Her long coils of hair reach up and grab kids to give them wedgies. And for some reason that struck a cord, Wedgie Woman. I just about peed my pants I laughed so hard. The title of the book is, Captain Underpants and the Wrath of the Wicked Wedgie Woman. What a great title! I mean the Wicked Wedgie Woman, what a genius name. Actually I would like to now be know as Wicked Wedgie Woman. I have 4 boys and a BIG chunk of my day is telling boys to get their hands away from their underwear. And they don’t really care where they do it either.

So we had soccer practice. And no joke M spend the full hour and a half with his hands picking out his underwear. Every time I would look up there he was picking on his apparently massive wedgie. So after practice I pull him aside and am like” Man, whats up with your undies?” He grins and tells me nothing is wrong he just likes to do it. What????

Then H and M spend a good amount of my day demonstrating different ways that they can itch booties in public that would be appropriate. I look at them without really saying anything trying to decide if this is some kind of a joke. Yeah…..its not…. they are actually asking a real question with visual aids. So I say, very sternly, “do NOT, do NOT itch your booties in public!!”. Both boys look very saddened by this news, shoulders down walk away as I continue to look on in weird disgust.

Here are 3 out of the 4 culprits! They have helped me perfect a great evil mom eye, though. I can look really mean at a kid who has their nasty little finger on their underwear without even hesitation now! Go me!!!

So from this Wicked Wedgie Woman, have a great day!
