"Rooty the Cheeto" This is the story of how Brody became "Rooty the Cheeto"
In the neighborhood, we carpool the kids to and from school. Every weekday, I take Cade and Brinley to kindergarten. Cade has a speech problem and because so, he cannot say Brody, so he calls him "Rooty". So before Christmas, the kindergartners had a "polar Express" party where they got to where their pajamas to school. Brinley wore her new Christmas pajamas that had a pink cheetah pattern on them. Cade jumps into the car and the kids check out each others pajamas. The conversation went a like this:
Brinley: These are my cheetah jammies
Cade: Cheeto?
Brinley: No, chee-TAH!
Cade: Yeah, cheeto.
Brinley: Chee-TAH!
Cade: Chee-TO!
After a brief moment of eyeing each other down, Cade gives in and says:
"Fine! Rooty is the cheeto then!"
OH, that just made my day! I could not stop laughing! So now Brody has become "Rooty the Cheeto".
And yes, that is a mohawk that he is sporting in his picture, Kalani did it himself!
