I showered today (which is no small feat for me) and put on my NEW favorite "OWENGE...the color of a warrior" shirt (What am I talking about? read here).
I'm sitting on the couch, G-McBabe (8) walks by and says, "Wow Mom. You don't really look good in orange, do you?
Um....RUDE! (even if he does have a point..I am a red head after all)
About an hour later I'm sitting at the kitchen table playing a game with Mini Rob (4) and he says, "Mom...you stink."
Double RUDE! And I totally showered today. Apparently for no reason.
(Although, the more I think about it, maybe I have spent far too much time around my children unbathed. They don't know a good smelling mama when they've got one.)
HONESTLY!
Kids...gotta love the blunt little buggers.
I mean, who needs a self esteem anyway?
Just don't expect to see me out of the house anytime soon. Blotchy red eyes don't really go with orange shirts either (sniff, sniff)
Just one easy click!

Thanks for stopping by my blog. To answer your question, girl red heads are much more feisty than boy redheads. A lot more.
Also, nice to meet a fellow card carrying member of the OCD club. After much work, I finally feel I have it in control. But I really shouldn't say that because I am probably going to jinx myself.
nice to meet ya. I'm going to put you in my reader.
I think our children are in cahoots! My daughter said something equally cruel to me today. I think I need to start listening to some positive affirmation cds to build my self-esteem back up. :)
what is it with kids these days?
too funny!

You are AWESOME! And I am grateful you are my friend. Those boys are just so silly....but you are an amazing mom! Looks like you had fun tubing too! FUN FUN!!
Sorry, I couldn't help but chuckle. Not at your pain, but I can TOTALLY hear each of their voices saying those things. Made me laugh! Love those boys (and you)!
