So, remember a couple of weeks ago when Arle called the pretty-scarf-clad-Muslim-lady a snowman? Yeah, well she totally outdid herself yesterday when we were checking out at Target.
Somewhere in the store, she spotted this little candy/fan/flashlight thing. She picked it up and was carrying it around with her while I filled my cart with approximately five non-exciting items that somehow totaled $100.
How is it that I can’t seem to make it out of Target without spending at least $100? And I’m not even getting anything fun. I would be OK with spending that kind of $$ if I were leaving with some of their cute p.j.’s and maybe some cute new serving pieces for the holidays. But, no. All I escaped with was some night-time Pull-ups and stupid Halloween candy.
I digress.
As I was paying for all of our junk, I told Arle we needed to give her candy/fan/flashlight to the lady because we were certainly not buying it.
She looked at the lady, then back at me and said, “But dat’s not a lady, Mommy.”
I assure you it was in fact a lady. A not so happy lady after my dear sweet daughter basically told her she looks like a man. She handed me my receipt without even a thank-you. I wished her a good day and got the heck outta Dodge.

OMG, my sister did the same thing. Cameron just still goes around asking if women are ladies. Then he argues with me if he thinks I am wrong!

That is too funny!!!! Our PE coach just told us today that a kinder kiddo informed her that she was not a boy…AFTER 7 weeks of school the little boy realized the coach was in fact a girl…only because of her pink fingernails!!! He said it was her hair that made him think she was a boy….oh my!!!! HUGS!!!
