The word "hot" exhibits numerous connotations: hot as in "don't-touch-the-oven-or-you'll-burn-your-hand" hot, 90 degree and sweating hot, sitting-by-the-fire hot, and of course, look at that person- they're smokin' hot!
So, last night when I was watching American Idol with Brendan and Ev, I realized that my seven year old son also knew these many meanings.
This cute little blonde girl pranced onto the stage to sing her song, and Brendan said, "Wow, she's hot!"
I giggled and asked him if she thought he was cute.
Sheepishly, he looked at me and realized that he just commented on how hot this girl was to his mom. I assured him that it is totally fine to think girls are cute and that he shouldn't be embarrassed.
Then, he began backpedaling. He stammered and blushed while stating, "Well, she looks kind of sweaty like she is too hot."
Now I started outright cackling at him and explained to Brendan that thinking girls are cute is totally fine.
Finally, out of frustration with his mom, Brendan just said,"She's not cute at all. Actually, she's kind of ugly."
I just smirked at him, realizing that my girl problems with Brendan are impending.
