We were heading out the door--to go to Mac's to get some all syrup Super Squishees, mind you--and I got:
"You're not wearing THAT are you?"
For the record, I was wearing what I wore to work that day. They felt I was "too fancy."
I tried to tell them the important wisdom that my mother once told me: you can never look too good. But they weren't buying it.
However, when they were all raring to go and I said 'Well, wait a minute, I have to go get changed' they were suddenly okay with my attire--as long as I wore flip flops with it.
And now I can't decide who was more embarrassed -- them or me.
Work on embarrassing them. By the time they are tweens, you will be able to embarrass just by being around.
