Actual conversation with Maxine today:
Me: Did anyone tease you about your lips?
Maxine: Yes. Taylor, but she was just kidding.
Me: Oh.
Maxine: My lips were useful though.
Me: Useful? how?
Maxine: Me and my friend were sitting in this spot, and we did something. When we came back (insert boy name) was there. I asked him nicely if he would move. He said no. I told him if he didn’t move, I was going to kiss him. He said, “Not with those lips.”
Maxine and her friend got her seat back.

Shortly after Autumn arrived home today, the phone rang. I answered it. It was the boyfriend.
Me: Hello.
Boyfriend: Hey.
Me: Hey. What’s up?
Autumn: MMMMOOOOOMMMMM!!!!
She totally blew my cover.
And the thing is, he had been WARNED that she sounds like me. And still, he didn’t realize it wasn’t her.
He reportedly told her it was “creepy.” I completely agree. It is very creepy to have boys call your teenage daughter. Shiver.
Thanks for playing.
