This Just In: Parents Misspell Their Own Child's Name

In an astonishing turn of events today, a precocious 3-year old child by the name of Eve Bradley discovered that her parents grossly misspelled her baby brother's name. The discovery was made while the family was driving to a tea party on Centreville Road. While sounding out the names of various family members, Eve noticed that her brother's name did not end in a Ssssss sound as the spelling of his name might indicate. Instead, it ended in a Zzzzz sound. The mortified mother, in an effort to save face, made an attempt to trick the children into believing that the letter "S" could also make a gentle Zzz sound, but the children were no fools. Older sister Laine, appalled at this finding told the press, "Mom, how could you spell his name wrong? He's your own son!" The illiterate and ashamed parents declined to comment.

This is not the first time Eve, champion reader, has uncovered a major error. In fact, only last week, while inspecting the label on a pair of penguin pajamas sent to her for Christmas by a doting aunt, she noted "The makers of these jammies were not so smart. They thought my name was babyGap." There is no question that Gap, Inc. will be receiving a letter on the issue shortly.
