Day 69/365 ~ 2012

"What Holiday is it, Mama?"
"It's just a regular day today, honey."
"I know, it's St. Patrick's Day!! I'll wear my green dress!"
"No, you can wear green next week, today you need to choose a sweatsuit."

Here is how she presented herself for the day.....

We are now in daily clothing negotiations.
Here was our compromise for the day.....

The dress came off (she was NOT happy about that).
Mama's choice:  The shirt and flowers for her hair, and no dress.
Kaitlin's choice:  Bracelets, necklace, clip, socks, shoes, and sweat suit were her choice.   The sunglasses stayed as well, they just weren't photographed.

  1. "Daily clothing negotiations" ~ I'm still laughing over that one!

    Katie is rocking the preschool runway style and her accessories are all the rage! I know many little ladies that would just loovvee to have such an outfit. You just don't ~get it~ mom! :)

    When Nicholas was in first grade he went through a "stage" of picking out his own clothes. We finally agreed that every Friday he could wear whatever he wanted, it was his day. In keeping with the celebration of his independence, every Friday I sent a note to his teacher reminding her why Nicholas was dressed so {umm}fashionably!!! :)

    Good luck with todays negotiations ~
