"BEAVER FEVER" OH WHATEVER....

I can honestly say I have never in my life heard this famous young man sing a song. I actually had no idea who he was until late last year.  How can that be you ask, his face is everywhere?? Well for starters I do not have any girls in my house, other than me of course, and I listen to Christian music and cancelled my BOP and Tiger Beat magazines many years ago. I do however have some adorable neighbor girls that think he is absolutely amazing and SUPER cute!  Therefore, I have a 7 year old son that knows more about him than he wants to. Ethan doesn't understand what the fuss is about and makes faces whenever Justin Beaver's name comes up.  Yes, I am saying "Justin Beaver" because no matter how many times I tell him or his friends tell him that his name is Justin Bieber, he tells us we are wrong.  

Yesterday the conversation went like this:

Ethan: Mom, Alyssa (a classmate) said that Justin Beaver came to her house and didn't even knock, he just came right in. That is not the truth mom, she lied!

Mom: I know sweetie...she was just teasing I am sure.

Dad: Who went to her house?

Ethan: Justin Beaver

Dad: Who is Justin Beaver?

Ethan: A boy.

Dad: How does Alyssa know him?

Ethan: She is a fan.

Dad: What does Justin do?

Ethan: Songs

Dad: Oh

Mom: Ethan his name is Justin Bieber.

Ethan: NO...it's Justin Beaver.

I give up...he can call him whatever he wants to as long as I don't have to hear how amazing he is, buy t-shirts with his face on it, posters for his walls, or listen to his music.  It's times like these that I am grateful to have a house full of boys.  However, ask me again this spring when Ethan and his friends are catching lizards, frogs, bugs, etc and bringing them into the house to show me.  I am sure at that point I will be wishing for barbies and pink rooms covered in Justin Bieber posters to go hide in. ;) Here's hoping "Beaver Fever" never ever hits my house.  If it does, I am sure dad will have something to say about that. :)
