Doesn't every girl wear cleaning gloves to pick up their sisters from VBS?!
(Take note she's in a dress!!! For some reason Little L doesn't share her big sisters' affection for fancy frocks. She prefers t-shirts specifically ones with Disney characters plastered on them accompanied by a comfy pair of shorts which she calls pants. I try to honor my children's clothing preferences and their attempt at clothing self expression...to a point. This girl does not like any of the dresses and she has a LOT of them, mostly hand-me-downs from sister 1 and sister 2 and I know this a power struggle issue. So every week or so I give her two dresses to choose from and tell her to pick one. After a little tantrum throwing, I wrangle her into one of them. She needs to remember and often be reminded exactly who's running this show. On this day I gave her two to choose from and she very nicely chose this purple one. She called it the 'pants dress'....it has matching bloomers, works for me!)
