Perhaps she's overcompensating for something


These were the kids 10 minutes before church.
All showered and dressed and ready to go.


I was the one behind the camera...
10 minutes before church.
Still in my pajama's.

Nate was the one who walked out and caught me taking pictures
when really, I should be getting ready for church.
He was not happy with me.

Let's review.
Me, taking pictures happy and content.
Nate, not so much.

But he had a hard time staying mad at me when he walked out and saw this:

The kids call it a little explosion on her head.
Nate calls it ridiculous.
I call it compensating for the lack of hair.

Really, it is kind of funny- that little poof ball on the top of her head.
But if anyone can pull it off, she's definitely the one.

Why do we choose to humiliate our kids so?
Perhaps, because we enjoy the entertainment.
Well, that and the fact that they can't do anything about it.

Dear Eden,
I'm sorry. But not sorry enough to
stop putting obscenely large bows/poof balls on top of your head.

Lovingly,
your mother
