A Summer Thursday

Kids are the greatest

So on Wednesday I spent about an hour handwashing my car. It was getting dark when I finished so I didn't dry the windows with a cloth so they air dried a bit splotchy. But the car looked nice. Then, I parked under a tree at school on Thursday and a bird left me a present on my hood. Once class was over, I got my hair cut . It's adorable, if I do say so myself.

Before I headed to Kirksville for the weekend to see my dear friend Emily, I stopped by to spend some time with my sister and nephews.

My sister loved my hair (it's asymmetrical this time, in sort of a bob cut with the cutest bangs EVER) and she asked my 7 year-old nephew, Tristan, what he thought of it.

"It looks messy." Yep. It does. Straight out of a kids mouth. A messy hair cut. He didn't look or sound impressed at all.

THEN I had my oldest nephew, Matthew, who is 10 get something for me out of my car.

What do you think he said?

"Aunty, you should wash your car, it's dirty."

Thanks Matthew, thanks a lot.


I leave you with this:
Enjoy family and especially children. They get old and pick up on political correctness.
