Today while getting my daughter ready for school,
she turns to me and says "mom, you are so pretty".
Usually I worry when this comes out of this child's mouth, because she usually has something up her sleeve in this case.
Mom: "Thank you, honey! I love you".
N: "I love you too, Mom!"...
N: "but you know you would be prettier if you actually brushed your hair when you put it in your bun, and kept your make-up on" (HA, I KNEW THERE HAD TO BE A BUT!!!)
Then a little later, I went to move out of the way of A while he was throwing his usual morning temper tantrum (Gotta love those terrible threes), and I bumped the table with my hips, and joking I said "ha, mommy doesn't realize how big her butt is sometimes". N out of no where says, "I don't know how you don't realize how big it is, we can all see how big it is"
I think this may mean I need to start running again! This girl could seriously make some one with high self esteem really doubt herself! LOL! YIKES!
She is such a turd sometimes, but I love her anyways!!!

Parker-isms
Parker-isms: (n); the funny and not so funny things that come out of my kids mouth, and the most funny of times.
It is funny being a parent, but even more fun when you have such independent, opinionated children, that are far too old and WISE for their age! These are a few things my kids have shared with me lately...
D: mom, my Spanish teacher said that if Mexicans ran our country, it would be Hell.
Mom: Well honey, there are bad presidents, and good presidents, your race doesn't have anything to do with how you run our country. Comments like those are racist honey. Plus, isn't your teacher Spanish?
D: yes mom, that's just what she said, NOT ME!
I have a very small mole on my chin, to the left of my mouth, like a beauty mark, sort of. My daughter has made it a habit to call this "my witches mole". So one morning, I woke up with a small pimple just under the mole, but it looked like it was growing. So this is the conversation that followed.
N: Mom, your witches mole is growing.
mom: N, 2 things, #1- it's not a witches mole, and #2- it's not growing. .
N: You could have fooled me, I thought it was growing because your so mean.
mom: WHAT? I am not mean... it is a small pimple under it, so it just looks like it is bigger.
N: your too old to get pimples!
mom: Just go to school! (As I am laughing my butt off)
I can't make these things up, I swear!
