I wore a red flannel shirt with dark green pants. Admittedly it wasn’t the best color combo, but I just had to run a few quick errands. GJ said I looked like “some kind of dumb cherry.” #hurtfeelings#emotionaldamage
GJ, "I don't ever want to cut my hair again. I want it to grow like Rapunzel cause my hair so pretty."
Me, "You know, you're lucky because some people don't look good with short hair, but you look really good with short hair."
GJ, "Yeah...probably because my face is so pretty."
Last night GJ was mad cause I told her no. She wanted to angrily kick me out of her room, but realizing how late it was, she knew it would likely mean lights out and no bedtime story. So, through tears, she yells at me, "Why don't you just get out of here!...if you want to."
GJ at a wedding watching people do the electric slide for the first time in her life says to me, "That looks like the most embarrassing thing in the world." #hardtruths
My Dad hasn't checked his own mail for years, I've been doing it. Tonight he couldn't even remember his box number. GJ found this unbelievable telling me, "Grandad doesn't even know his own mailbox number...and he's a GROWN MAN!"
Showed GJ a video of her Uncle @ImthatB_L 's baby walking around for the first time. GJ starts running around the room and says, "It's obvious that I'm 6." #showoff
GJ kept expressing concern that she may be on Santa's naughty list this year. Today at 7:30am she burst through our door and whisper-shouted to me (so as not to wake her mother), "Dad!! I'm on the 'Nice' list!!! And you got something, too!! It's Nerf!! C'mon!!" and ran back out.
GJ is learning how to whistle, but she isn't whistling any particular tune, so it just sounds like she's walking around the house being super suspicious.
So this morning she's back to her regular old self. So I'm like,
"Hey, come help me with this laundry."
GJ, "Oh great. First I hurt my head and now this?"
I have a feeling she's gonna get a lot of miles out of this.
