Mommy Make-Over

Alternately titled: Why Little Girls Should Not Be Allowed to do Mommy’s Make-up

Reese, age seven and a half, is currently fascinated by my make up. And since I love to be pampered, I have agreed – twice in the last week! – to let her give me a make-over. The first time she did my make up was quite enjoyable. She didn’t quite understand the boundaries of blush, and I ended up with a very red nose and cheeks….but otherwise it was a fun experience.

Last night, however, she was feeling a little more daring. I fear that I may have to reconsider the Mommy Make-overs and stick with letting her put pony tails all over my head.

I think the pictures speak for themselves.

  3. Lol green would be fantastic. You could just be an avocado period for Halloween or an avocadobot. Your daughter looks like she is having a great time applying the makeup.

    It’s something to think about….really. It might get me a few votes from people who might otherwise be skeptical. I mean, wouldn’t that show some unique dedication to the avocado cause?

    Oh, yes, I think that the black striped eye shadow would be a great addition to a witch costume!
