Maid House?

Here is Ben Instagram-ing his new shoes. Yes after a 30 minute lecture on teens and social media I let him have an Instagram account. He now has more followers than I do. 

He customized the shoes on Nike's web site and after an agonizing three week wait and a trip all the way from China they finally arrived. Unfortunately his well thought placement of the words "House" and "Maid" on the tongues to spell his nickname that the kids at school call him, "Housemaid", backfired. Because the words were printed facing out when he assumed they would be facing in so they accidentally spell "Maid House" instead. After his initial disappointment ("But Maid House makes no sense!") He got over it and few of his friends seem to have noticed the mistake. Of course I did point out that House Maid doesn't make any sense either. "Why do they call you that? Because you sweep the floor with your competition?" To which he just laughed. Apparently he has no idea either. I also told him he could just keep his legs crossed all the time or wear his shoes on the wrong feet.
