I took my son to the barber on Friday. As we were pulling back into our drive way, I hoped out of the car to get the mail. As I was walking toward the mailbox I could see my shadow on the ground and I could see my hair bouncing in the breeze and thought to myself, Wow! I'm having a really great hair day today! As I got back in the car I glanced at myself in the rear view mirror and smiled and kind of shook my hair.
Sarah said, "Your hair looks good!"
"Thanks, honey! I'm using a new shampoo," I chattered excitedly, pleased that someone else had noticed my glorious mane.
"I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to Peter," she said.
Silence.
"Oh," I mumbled.
My kids sure know how to keep me from becoming too pleased with myself!

ha ha ha ha !!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBean told me my new style makes me look like a scrub brush.
ReplyDeleteKids are good for one's humility.
LOL!
ReplyDeleteYep kids have a great way of bringing us back down to earth. ;)
HA! Man I am going to have to train my son to constantly roll out the compliments for mommy!
ReplyDeleteThe real ego boost is when they look at photos of you -- photos which are maybe only five or so years old -- and inform you that your hair looks "funny."
ReplyDeleteOnly 37 and my kids already think the hair is dated.
Sarah is too funny.
ReplyDeleteWhat a funny story!!! This is so something that would happen to me - this was funny! Hope you had a great weekend - see you later. Kellan
ReplyDeleteLOL! That is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteSo, was Peter using new shampoo, too???
Heidi :0
wow.... haha. That's a hoot.
ReplyDeleteOuch!!! That was cute, I KNOW you were having a good hair day.
ReplyDeleteSo what new shampoo are you using anyway?
Good thing your ego is wrapped up in this whole mommy thing, isn't it? LOL!
ReplyDeleteThat's a classic! Gotta love that one's honesty!
ReplyDeleteKids are great like that,a ren't they!!!???!!!
ReplyDeleteOh that's cute! Nothing like a reality check from the kids, right? :)
ReplyDeleteI'm always so surprised when the kids notice what I'm wearing or how my hair looks. Susie (2) said, "You have a nice shirt on today, Mommy" and I just melted.
ReplyDeleteNo egos allowed anymore!
ReplyDeleteMine tells me all the time that I'm an old lady.
That's too funny!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and for praying for Izzy!
blessings,
Annie
Ooooh! That is a groaner for sure. LOL. Stumbled across your blog, and I'm glad I did. Thanks for the laugh.
ReplyDeleteHeh-heh-heh! Kinda reminds me of when my son said, "Mom, why do you have so many cracks in your face?"
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!
ReplyDeleteAaaw, kids keep us humbled.
