"Mom, how does the Tooth Fairy fly through the air?"
"How do YOU think?"
"I think moms do it."
"Ah."
"But how can a Mom be a Tooth Fairy?"

Another Parenting Moment Unenvisionable Pre-Children

I exit the store and pull the Suburban out of the parking space, passing the store display window as I leave the parking lot. I stop short.

Cuddle Bear?
What?
You did that, didn't you.



Yes.

I drag the Cuddle Bear back into the store and set her in front of the owner.

"Well, hello again!"
Ipulledthepantsdownontheman...mak....manik....yourbigdollandI'msorry.
"What?"

She said she's the one who de-pantsed your mannequin. And she's sorry.

  1. It's a proud mommy Christmas card moment! How awesome!!!

    Seriously, though...should I be laughing or crying? I'm really not sure. Admittedly, I'm laughing, which is something I very much needed amist the craziness of my own world...but at the same time I'm crying for you!
