I've never been so insulted

It’s been kind of a rough day with me fighting yet another migraine and the weather too warm for the kids to want to be out for too long at time, so we decided to stay in and watch movies. Anyway, Jaide learned about the Titanic this year in school and she really wanted to see the movie, so I rented it for her. Well, we pop the movie into the Blu-Ray, and in the first few minutes we are watching the people in all of their old-fashioned clothes when Jaide looks over at me and asks “Mommy, were you alive when they built the Titanic?”

I’m not sure I’ve ever been so insulted. The really sad thing is that for a second, she was totally serious. I just looked at her, dumbfounded for a few seconds. Then she had a minute to think about it and laughed, and said, “Never mind!”

I was like “OMG, Jaide, how old do you think I am?! Mamaw (her great-grandmother) wasn’t even born when they built the Titanic!”

“I wasn’t thinking,” she answered, and had the grace to look at least a little embarrassed.

Blonde moment for a brunette girl! Hahaha
