Is she workin' it or is she workin' it?!
So Peanut comes in while I'm running on the treadmill and asks, "ya know that pile that is donations.....can I cut up a pair of MY old jeans and make them into shorts?"
Me, "sure, just don't cut them too short".
Then [dun dun dun dunahhhh] she walks in like this:
Hmmmmm, but then I realized OMGosh, those are my old True Religion Big T flap pocket, heavy stitch jeans that I was going to sell on eBay!!! [side note, yes, they were next to the give-a-way pile but SOOOOOOOOOOOO not in the pile - certainly, at least 3' away.
So, I did what every mom would have done. Freaked out [silently] and said, those are mine!! JK, that's so what I wanted to say then I turned my thoughts quickly to [Jesus ;) and] what a "good" mom would do [took two and a half [or 47] deep breaths and] I really said, "you completely rock, Kid" and took her to summer camp - exactly as pictured.
Now if she gets a stain on those, I'm really going to be ticked. ;)

omg omg omg your true religions?!?! AT LEAST they were ones you were going to sell and not ones that were your fav pair ;)
She looks great! Good Mama for not freaking out in front of her. :) I bet she loves them. And, you and your daughter can wear the same size?? Jealous!
Eeehhh...Kids & scissors. A few wks ago I found some blonde hair on the ground. Both have blonde hair but only one can work scissors. The big one cut her own bangs. I asked her why she said her hair was in her face. Seriously?!
I don't know; I think she needs a bit more hip action in the pose. Seriously, if she is gonna bring it; then BRING IT!
firstly, you wear the same size pants as peanut???? jeaaaaaaaaaaalous. Secondly, I am a HUGE fan of summer camp. I went for about 9 years and ended up as a camp counselor! I hope peanut has the time of her life!!! Oh and make sure you send her LOTS of candy and letters saying how much u and pita and chuy miss her otherwise you won't be a cool mom.
NUMBER ONE- That kid rocks ( you know it shes yours!)
Number TWO- HEART FREAKING BREAKER already on the move!
OMG, that is soooo funny! I'm glad you didn't claim them, cause she looks uber cool, you know she didn't fall far from the tree!!!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Peanut is so freaking awesome!
So, i have no clue what that brand of jeans are...,but they sound expensive. EEEEK
I love her fashion sense!
I love her!!!!
Good mommy for staying calm :)
LOL
Sending Peanut to summer camp in that outfit is worth WAY more than you could have ever gotten for those jeans on eBay!!!
You are definately the good parent!! With an 18 year old and a 13 year old to vouch for me--don't know if I could have handled it that well!!
And yeah, great outfit. My daughter (the 18 year old) agrees!!
You ARE a good mom!
She looks super cute and you are a great mom!
I have that exact same outfit. Way to keep your cool!
;-D
That? Is.Awesome! She is definitely rockin' that look.
Selling the jeans on ebay - $20 Seeing Peanut in that outfit - priceless :)
She's truly priceless!
LOL…that’s why I ALWAYS keep my True Religion Big T flap pocket, heavy stitch jeans as far away from my donations basket as possible.
NICE! She looks so cute. Bummer on your jeans but you are AWESOME for not freaking out.
HA! Well she has an eye for fashion huh? Why would she cut the crappy jeans?!
Way to calm down before you reacted :) Something I need to learn!
Great job on keeping your cool. I wouldn't have been able to. way to rock, mom! :)
You just can't trump style and creativity, she rocks! What a funny story that will be for the future(once you get over the shock!).
Awesome story and way to keep your cool. Just found your blog. Like it!
I love this picture even more now that I know the story behind it!
I love how you handled that!!!
