I need to tell a story; one of my favorite ones of 2010 regarding Paige. Paige likes to run around without a shirt or pants on; whichever she can get away with. Especially at grammas house; as rules tend to be a little. . .looser there. I was on the phone with my Mom and Paige was there that Saturday helping decorate the tree. "Mom, does she have clothes on?" I asked.
"She has pants on." Mom said.
"I am trying to get her to at least wear a shirt and then shorts if we have to, she's old enough she needs to stay covered. Tell her to get her goobies covered." For those that don't know, as soon as Paige could talk, she called her boobies, her goobies. Too cute to be corrected.
Mom told me she would. Later on that afternoon, I got a phone call with gramma's solution. Paige got home and sort of sashayed up to me. "Mom, I gots a bras on," she sort of stage whispered with a ton of pride in her little voice.
"Really? Show me"
She slid the top of her little shirt over so I could see the strap. Gramma had taken a sports bra and sewn it in and then sewn the straps. It basically ended up being a very large tube top with huge straps, but there was never more joy on anyone's face than Paige's. The look on her face was almost as great as the priceless one on her Daddy's when his four year old marched up to him and said, "Dad, I gots a bras on!" There were no words to describe the look. I laughed so hard and told him not to worry, it'll be okay. He has a daughter, and its part of the territory!
