SOMEONE'S BEEN DRINKING THE HATER-ADE...
So hubby and I jetted off to Los Angeles and Las Vegas for our semi-annual get-the-hell-away-from-the-kids excursion and had a grande old time. The 72 degree weather at 7am was very nice. It did get HOT during the day, but dry heat and then it was crazy breezy. Then of course, I come home and am in the midst of a heatwave. Nothing sucks more than a DC summer with unbelievable humidity. Mother Nature is no joke.
So while sitting at the Daily Grill across from the Burbank Airport, I call home. Its about 8pm East Coast time, so i figure I'd check in on the little one and let her know I'd be home the next day.
WHY DID I HAVE TO RUIN THE SURPRISE?
My Mom says, just like a Grandmother would, "OH! She's just been perfect...well...just one, little incident...but other than that...PERFECT! Just an angel!!!"
I'm like, well what little incident are we talking about?
She proceeds to tell me that the child, 9 years old, has taken the liberty of: get this, shaving her eyebrows!
*COMMENCE LAUGHTER*
Done yet?
No?! - okay....we'll wait!
Finished? Okey dokey....so on with the story:
My mom says that the child went into her bathroom to take her shower, closed the door and then yelled, "Grandma - my eyebrows are coming off in the shower!!"
Grandma goes to investigate and low and behold all the evidence that she took Grandpa's razor to her face is lying on the sink. Grandma says, "No they aren't...you shaved them off".
I laugh when telling this story since it proves one damn thing I've been saying all along: the child is a horrible liar. She can't lie for shit! And yes, this proves to be a good and bad thing. But as I tell the child, "your not a very good liar, i think you should stick to the truth!"
Anyhow - a 5th grade girl told MY baby that she was ugly and that the ugliest thing about her was her eyebrows. And that is what prompted my child to go all Freddie Kruger on her face.
Obviously, there are issues on both sides here. Won't get into them all - don't have that kind of time or energy. But yes, after the incidents that have happened at her school this year - I'm feeling like these GD kids are out of their GD minds!
Parents, lets be honest with ourselves: hate breeds more hate. If you're the suck your teeth - "she think she cute" - kind when you see someone who looks better/dresses better, than what do you expect your little girl will do when she sees a pretty little girl who looks better/dresses better than she does?
