Things that are OK in my mind:
- Wearing white pants after Labor Day
- People who love each other getting married
- Considering Nutella a food group
- Letting laundry sit unwashed when the weather is perfect
- Cheering louder for your favorite team when they are playing well
- Eating Cream of Mushroom soup straight out of the can
- Being nervous on your first day of camp when surrounded by a whole bunch of people you've never met
Things that are not OK in my mind:
- Wearing white pants with bright yellow underwear that feature a giant smiley face across your butt
- Marrying someone because it's who you are expected to marry
- Considering ketchup a food group
- Letting laundry sit unwashed when the bulldog has rolled around in my closet and left her bulldog stench all over every single pair of my jeans
- Loudly declaring yourself a better fan than anybody else when your favorite team is playing well
- Making fun of me for eating Cream of Mushroom soup straight out of the can
- Freaking out, bawling, and hiding at a picnic for the daycare center where you have been nearly your entire life, especially when YOU KNOW ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE
Ahem.
One of those not OK things pretty much describes our weekend. Which, WTH? Seriously? How does a kid go from BEGGING to go to said picnic to begging to leave ten seconds after we arrive?
Every time I think I'm starting to understand how Alexis' brain works, she does something completely unpredictable and leaves me feeling like an idiot.
Oh, well. At least she completely unexpectedly loved swimming lessons.
