“Mom’s Behavior: Needs Improvement.”

Em: “HO HO HO!”
Me: “Santa? Is that you?”
Em: “Yes! It is me!”
Me: “Do you have anything for me? I’ve been good all year long.”
Em: “You have? Youv’e been good all year long?”
Me: “Yes!”
Em, matter of factly: “That is false. You have not been good all year long. That’s false.”
Me: “Well… I’ve tried!”
Em: “Hm.”

Wow. Tough crowd.

In other news, Em is still wearing those Christmas socks. I shudder to think what her feet will smell like when I’m finally able to peel them off.

    If you truly want a smell to remember, call your local bowling alley and ask if they have any of their shoes for sale – some will sell their more slightly used pairs for cheap.

    Then let her wear those socks for a few more days, plus the oh-so fanciful pair of used bowling shoes and boo-yah! A smell you’ll wish you could bottle and save for a special occasion. You could give it away as a Christmas gift to someone with sinus problems.

    Wow. See, that’s what Santa should bring if you’re naughty. Dirty used bowling shoes. The rate of niceness would skyrocket.
