Sometimes, you just have to mess with your kids. Isn't that what they are for haha? Anyway, Jeff and I were sitting in our living room contemplating what our day would entail. We came up with two ideas: to hike Cowles Mountain and to go to the movies. We came to the agreement that we would see "The Gray". Since it started at 2:05 PM, we figured why not pull Kekoa out of school early so he can come as a nice suprise for him. We don't get to spend as much time with him as we would like so this seemed like a great idea. Besides, the kid is a straight "A" student. He deserves a treat once in a while.
Anyway, Jeff decides to call the school to let them know we would be picking him up at 1:15. They told us they would have Kekoa waiting in the office for us when we arrived. I told Jeff once the teacher tells him he is being picked up early, he may think something is wrong. Why not go with it and make him think he has some crazy doctor appointment? Well that is exactly what we did. Jeff and I planned out the whole thing and agreed we would tell Kekoa we came to ge him early because he has a physical for baseball and it includes a hernia check as well as a new procedure.....a rectum exam. I wasn't sure he would fall for it but let me tell you, he did hahaha.
Jeff and I completed our morning hike and made it home just in time to take a shower and get dressed before we had to pick up Kekoa from school. We arrived at his school and went straight to the office. As Jeff was signing him out, Kekoa comes to me with a worried look on his face asking, "Mom, am I in trouble?" I respond to him and tell him that he is not in trouble. I told him baseball now requires the players to get a physical and we were going to the only opening they had for the next month. His next question to me was, "Do they do the turn your head and cough test?!" I was trying so hard not to laugh as I responded, "yes, they do the hernia check as well as a new test they now require. A rectum exam." The three of us continued to walk to the car and I could tell he was not quite sure what a "rectum exam" was. He of course thinks it has to do with his genitals and asks, "is that a wiener check?" Jeff responds by telling him, "you are getting a butt check." Kekoa seemed to be in disbelief and said, "But I didn't wipe (the kid has jokes).!?" but quickly chimes in again and says, "just kidding just kidding!! How do they look in there? Do they have to go in my butt to look?" This is the part I had to look away so I wouldn't blow the whole prank and start laughing. Jeff told him how a rectum exam was conducted as I was turning my head away from both of them. "They stick a probe up your butt with a little camera and once it is in there, it expands and pulls your butt apart." Kekoa gets a look of shock on his face and says, "man I am nervous now."
As we drove towards the movie theatre, Kekoa is still in belief that he is getting a very serious physcal. Jeff continues to tell him how they don't put anything to lubricate the probe and how it might hurt. We pulled into the Edwards Theatre parking lot and told him he had an appointment with "Dr.Edwards." Kekoa says "is it an appontment with Edwards cinema?" We starte laughing thinking he had figured out we were not going to the doctor but to movies instead. He then asks us if we were going to the docotor before or after the movie. Jeff and I start laughinng even harder and finally tell him flat out that he does not have a doctor appointment for his butt. He started laughing and gave us the typical teenage response of, "dude you guys suck!"......he still thought it was funny and was a great sport about it. We got away with a funny joke and enjoyed the movie too :) Messing with your kids is fun sometimes ;)
