Last night Bethany was being very kind and offered to rub my feet before she went to bed. She also knew it would delay bedtime for her, but I didn't care, I wanted my feet rubbed. Clark came down and caught on to the no-going-to-bed tactic so he also offered to rub my feet. Bethany moved on to giving me a head massage. I liked this a lot.
However, the conversation of the children moved on to commenting on different parts of me. The following are actual statements from my children:
"You have really fat, short toes"
"Why are your toenails so crumbly?"
"Mom's head is really greasy"
"You have short prickly hairs all over your legs"
"Whoa, you have a lot of hair in your nose"
So, I wasn't feeling very beautiful at this point. I no longer liked my foot rub. GO TO BED!

Ha, ha, ha!! Don't we love the little creeps?! (:
Why do kids have to be so honest all the time? Not that I think your toes are short or you have a lot of nose hair! It just seems that they have no fear to say whatever they are thinking.
By the way when you have a minute could you email me your new address. I am ACTUALLY sending out Christmas cards this year!

This was the funniest blog. I shared it with Matt and we were busting up! Kids are so honest. Also that is the most adorable picture of Bethany. It captures here true "cuteness". I really do love it.
seriously i cringe at the day that that will happen. when I was a nanny it happened all the time but I dont want to hear it from my own kids!! but it will come I am sure :)
I like to stay up late too! Alexis
