The Dress


I was so tired when this picture was taken. It was taken at 10:00 am Thursday morning. I had plenty of sleep. Why was I tired? Well, I spent over 30 minutes convincing Rebekah that this dress was NOT a BABY dress. Can you believe it? She is only FOUR and thinks this is a baby dress. Yikes! Rebekah had her preschool program. I bought this dress specifically for the occasion. She decided that since it was not blue she did not like it and there was no convincing her otherwise. We were late for the program. But, she was wearing her pretty new dress. I won. Not sure how, but I won this battle...I feel I might be losing the war though. If you're keeping track, she hated the piggy tails too.
I was just wondering, is this what is thought of as the "joys of raising children"?

Cute dress. LOVE it. :) Tell Rebekah that Aunt Melissa thinks it is beautiful. Did part of the bartering process involve a ring pop?

Why are our girls not together all the time? This sounds exactly like Emily, who went 6 months only wearing pink, purple, yellow and white. She didn't want to buy the 4T skirt because she didn't like that the 4T tag was green, not purple to match. Sigh. Now that school's over let's get together more!
