We've been trying out this new fangled thing called housekeeping.  It's kind of a lot of work, but somehow it's nicer around here.  Even still, I remain undecided about my long term committment. 
This morning, Elise was helping me make her bed.  Things were going fine, I thought, but all the sudden Elise shouts,"Oh no, I just ruined my make up."  She takes off running to the bathroom, where she works on combing her hair for a good 10 minutes.  Meanwhile, I make the bed.  I'm fairly certain, no I'm 100% certain, I have never said anything of that nature.  Where in the world did she pick that up?  I'm not modeling that behavior at all.  The storming off to my room thing I might be modeling, but this make up thing is kind of out of the blue.

  1. Maybe there's subliminal messaging in the barbie movies or something, because Eliana comes up with girlie cliches all the time--like "I can't do that mom, or it will ruin my nail polish." Whaaaa?
