Anyways, it's been way too long since I've used a face mask so I decided that tonight was the night to bring back memories! I started smearing blue mud-like gunk all over my face when I realized I might scare Miss A with it on...
I quickly brought her into the bathroom with me and told her "Look Miss A, Mommy has a blue face!" She watched me cover my face entirely in blue... She didn't just casually watch, she GAWKED. And I mean, she stared at me like I was fricken out of my mind!
But hey, she didn't cry right? That's all that matters.
The cat-eye look really makes it! I remember when my daughter was Amelia's age (you were probably still in grade school) and I slathered on a clay mask before bed. Wouldn't you know, it stormed that night and she came running into my room, all upset because of the thunder. Right as she opened the door, lightning struck very nearby, and the glow blazed through the skylight in my bedroom. And there was my darling toddler, looking at her mommy with her hair all pulled back and a scary green face. Talk about a MAJOR freak out! To this day, she still hates thunderstorms. LOL
ReplyDeleteWow that poor baby!! Hahaha. What a funny story- Thanks for sharing! I think that whenever I decide to put on a face mask, I'll let Amelia watch me in hopes that it will never frighten her.
DeleteYou and Amelia are just beautiful! The last picture would make a great ad for a mommy-daughter spa or something.
DeleteI love it! And oh boy...I remember when you and Alex and I would do face masks and make some pretty gross concoctions to soak our feet in in the tub! Amelia is just adorable :)
ReplyDeleteThat is exactly what I was thinking about while writing this post. That one girl's night was super fun!
