Marty & the 300

Marty's been begging for a month to watch 300. Yesterday I finally gave in and told him he could watch it, just once, with me, we were going to skip parts, and he wasn't going to complain. So we watched enough for him to get the storyline without the gore and sex. After that he slew Persians all day.

At bathtime I asked "Do Spartans ever retreat?"

"NEVAAAARRRR!"

"Do Spartans ever surrender?"

"NEVAAAARRRR!"

"Are you a Spartan warrior?"

*pause* "No, I think I'd like to live."

So much for "with your shield or on it"! As a mother, I don't know whether to be ashamed or relieved!
