Nowena Polly Boyd

I occasionally tease my youngest son about how much I wanted him to be a girl when I was pregnant with him. So this morning, I decided to twist the knife a little. Here's our conversation:

Mom: "Hey Noah. How 'bout we change you into a girl for 2nd grade this year? No one will ever know. We can grow your hair in pigtails, paint your toenails pink, get you a Hannah Montana backpack, and change your name to Nowena Polly Boyd. Next year for 3rd grade, you can be a boy again. No one will ever know-promise."

Noah: (looking at me with utter disdain & amazement)....."Das bisgusting." And then he walked out of the room.

So I guess that's a no. I won't be walking down the pink aisle in Target anytime soon.
