Princess turned six over the weekend. To say she got SPOILED ROTTEN, is an understatement.
She went on two shopping sprees for school clothes, courtesy of Oma and Mimi. And, she has been determined to wear as many new things (all at once) as possible, ever since.
The highlight of one of today's get-ups revolved around a pair of multi-color, multi-striped, over-the-knee socks.
As a result, this conversation with my very LITERAL daughter just took place:
HER: Mom, these socks are A LOT higher than I thought.
ME: They're cute, sweetie. That's how all the kids are wearing them these days.
HER: Huh? What'd you say?
ME: (repeat) (while kind of chuckling to myself)
HER: Mom (slightly irritated, and not even remotely amused), no one else is in my socks!
(Then I got the "my mom is effing nuts" look.)
(From my six year old)
I didn't even try to explain.

Wow! That's about as literal as it gets. And yes, 6 year olds are notoriously literal. That's the good news. It's about 7 years old when they start "reading between the lines." Believe me, that's scarier!
HA! Love it and been there! I am a mom to three girls and can totally relate. I am a Michigan mom blogger looking to follow other Michigan mom blogs and found your through the Directory of Mom blogs! Nice to meet you :)
