You know you're raising a redneck when....

So Rico has one of those horses on a stick. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, horse head, stick body. Lately, it's been one of his most favorite things to play with.

Yesterday he advises me that he has named his horse Wal-Mart. Ok. I thought, "Uh-oh somebody's been watching too much TV" (and seeing too many commercials). I told him that I think he and his sister need to cut back on TV time. He gives me a very strange look and then asks why. I tell him that if he's going to name a horse Wal-Mart, well, that means he's been watching too much TV.

He says, "But, Mom, I named him after the Christmas Carol. You know, the one that starts, 'Somebody's done been to the Wal-Mart".

And if you've never heard Jeff Foxworthy's Redneck Twelve Days of Christmas, then you won't know what this post is about. And maybe I need to reload Rico's IPOD.
