Well, the son was not the most hygienic person in the world and lucky me, he liked me. While I was always friendly I did my best to avoid him.
One time he catches me in the kitchen with my nephew and niece. While we are talking my nephew - who is almost four at the time and the most introverted child I've ever met...he was as shy as they come, you couldn't pay him to talk in front of strangers - is pulling at my leg, saying, "Aunt Erin! Aunt Erin!" He keeps at it until we both stop talking and turn to him. I'm thinking it must be something really important for him to speak up. He opens his mouth and says, "That man is so ugly!"
I could have died. It just hung in the air and we stared at each other for what felt like an eternity. When I tried to apologize he mumbled something and left.

There's more...

About a year goes by, I'm babysitting again. My sister wants the carpets cleaned for a party but has to work. I tell her there is no way in hell I'm going to be the one that lets them in but she talks me into it. Tells me he probably took it as kids say the darndest things. Yeah right.
It wasn't going bad until my niece (she's 2 1/2) innocently asks why he is wearing a hat, he turns to me and says, "Maybe it's because I'm so ugly!"

What do you say to something like that? lol I just ignored it and made sure I would never again be there when he was.

Haha! Kids are so funny!
