How is it that when a kid looks a mess, clothes don't match, shoes don't match, hair isn't combed and they are with thier father people think....aww look at that cute kid, her father must've let her dress herself.
However if that same cute little child was out with her mother people think....what in the hell is that mother thinking? She clearly must not care about how her kids look. I hate to see what her house looks like...
How is this fair????
Truth is Char and Vi try to dress themselves all the time but I say "NO you are not wearing that!" This works most of the time for me. Of course the other day when we got to a party Char took her shoes off to reveal Christmas socks. I mean sometimes things do slip by me, But Joey on the other hand, he doesn't even try to coerce them to wear something else. He took the girls out yesterday and Char was wearing shamrock pants with a ruffled skirt and a flowered shirt. Wish I could give you a visual. Should've taken a picture. Violet's outfit wasn't quite as bad but clearly noone got thier hair brushed. All of this would be fine if he had not brought them by my work for all to see. I would like to say that this is laziness on Joey's part but truth is I believe it is a true inability to understand what matches. There are many times I am sending all members of my home back into thier rooms to change. (Joey included)
I am thinking my wonderful husband chose the right profession. Thank God his cooking is better than his fashion sense.( and let me just say he can serve up a fine looking plate of food!)
