I love that my girls say what is on their mind. They are much like me when it comes to telling it like it is. If you haven't read any of my Notes, blogs, whatever they are being called... you might not understand that I see humor in everyday life. I encourage my girls to tell me how they feel. I would love to say it is because I am the kind of Mother that finds self expression to be a "release" if you will. I would love to say it's because the Psychodoctormabobs say it is good for them to feel like they have a voice. I would love to say it.... I can't... I encourage them because I understand how freakin' funny it is to listen to an 8 year old and 5 year old tell me "like it is". And seriously.... I am ALWAYS looking for good material for the blog. Lauren, as usual, was questioning why I wouldn't let them do something. The "something" was insignificant to me, but obviously, important to her. After several "No's" and the stock answer of, "I'm sorry my reason isn't good enough for you" schpeeeillll, she gave me the, ' I cannot believe you' eyebrow raise and pushed her glasses up. She looked me square in the eyes and said, "I'm gonna have to check on this..... but I am pretty sure you are the MEANEST mom EVER"!
I cannot say for sure what her "checking" uncovered. I am waiting for the results as we speak! Wish me luck.
