Making Me Blush
The kids and I went to the playground in the next village over while A. was busy doing something else. Just after we arrived, a truck pulled up with a teenage girl and her mother, who started setting up for a party. They busily moved tables about, blew up balloons, and pulled out a HUGE pinata in the shape of a pink cowboy boot.
The children were enjoying watching the party preparations. I assumed the two were setting up for the girl's birthday party.
Then they hung up a big box on which was written quite clearly, "We're here for the sex."
Oh, really? Because I'm not, and my children certainly aren't.
I quickly re-directed the children to the other part of the playground, where my two literate kids wouldn't be able to read the sign. I could not imagine why such a thing was on display at what I thought was a teenager's birthday party.
When A. arrived, he suggested that probably they were setting up a bachelorette party, which I guess makes a little more sense.
But still. I could have done without that.

I bet it was a gender reveal!

Gender reveal?
Moi: Ah. Now THAT makes sense. Thank you. I feel better.
Kay: When expectant parents announce the sex of their coming baby.
I vote gender reveal , too. Maybe the piñata held either pink or blue treats to indicate the sex.
Lord have mercy. My brain was scrambling for an answer. I like the gender reveal one. Shuwee.
Oh my goodness, until someone said about it being a gender reveal, my reaction would have been exactly the same as yours!
i also think gender reveal.
but maybe you should have put up a sign that said "we're here because of sex".
put THEM on the back foot.
