YoU can LoSe bAttLes and still WiN the WaR

This morning, while getting ready for school, Hannah informed me that she wanted to wear orange and pink.

"Hannah, orange and pink don't match,"

"Yes they do!" she said as she pulled out her 'Ring Pop' t-shirt that is a sherbet orange with pink ring pop suckers on it.

"Okay, go get your pink pants and HURRY you're going to be late for shcool!"

Very quickly she emerged from her room...dressed...however, not in the pink pants I suggested. She came out in a pair of RED VELVET pants.

"Hannah!" I yelled, "What are you doing? Where are the pink pants? You're going to be LATE!!"

Her very dramatic yet somber response was, "Mom, I want to look like the morning sunrise."

"Whatever, I don't have time for this...go brush you teeth."

Battles and Wars...you pick 'em

That sounds like Hannah.
Isn't that shirt her favorite? Is it getting too small?

Picture. Picture. I want to see a picture!

I'm sure she looked like the beautiful morning sunshine.

Oh man. Wish I could say it gets better... I remember when Arielle wanted to wear her pink cowgirl boots to school everyday!!! Now, she is finally wearing clothes that match- most days- and now we're onto the hair battles...like she's DETERMINED to do her own...You're right, you have to pick your battles!
