Addie: (in tears) MOM... I need a mermaid for my finger
me: A mermaid??
Addie: Yes! A mermaid.
me: What kind of mermaid??
Addie: a Princess mermaid!
me: You mean a princess band aid???
Addie: (puzzled) no... a princess mermaid
me: a mermaid is a fish person... do you mean a band aid?
Addie: oh... yeah.
I love my silly princess everything girl! Everything has to be princess, meaning frilly, girly, pink, or all of the above. Every day she asks to wear a princess dress so now her wardrobe consists of a closet full of dresses (thank heavens for hand me downs from Emily!), she needs princess shoes (flowered flip flops or pink polka dot flip flops), and she needs a pink princess bow. She begged to have a pink bedroom so I finally gave in and chose a VERY light pink and she is tickled...pink... {snicker}.
Last funny is that Addie stared hard at my face the other day and said "Mom you need to clean your polka dots!" It took me a second to realize she meant my freckles, and then she told me I needed to go wash them off. Today she told me all about my polka dots on my eyebrows, nose, cheeks, forehead, arms, etc. and how I needed to take off that "make up". Silly girl!

How adorable! I love that she called a bandaid a mermaid. :)
HAHA! I love it! She's so stinkin cute!
Tell Addie that your 'polka dots' are actually 'sun kisses'. Ty has the best 'sun kisses' and I just love them.
At least you don't have acne. When I was a teacher's aid in high school, one of my kids came up to me and asked me why I had dots on my face. I had to laugh because kids are honest to a fault, and sometimes you don't like what they have to say. Addie is so sweet, mermaid! Haha!
What a cutie. I love the mermaid comments and the freckles! She is a smart one too. :)
