Beauty Queen?

Drew said the funniest thing the other day. It made me laugh so hard that I had to share.

He was all in a tizzy about something ridiculous and was starting to take his frustrations out on Grace. He walked by her and pretended to elbow her while she was sitting at the counter peacefully eating her breakfast. I was sitting right across from her, saw it and told him that it was unacceptable and not necessary to do that.

He walked away and denied he had done anything and then started ranting and raving about how we treat Gracie better then him and that we treat her "like a beauty queen"! I almost spit out my breakfast laughing so hard. Gracie started giggling too! Beauty queen?????? Gracie????? Has he never looked at her before????

I looked at Gracie and said, "you could look like a beauty queen if you wanted to but most of the time, we are lucky if you hair is combed and your face is clean!" She laughed and agreed!"

That has got to be the most off base thing Drew has ever come up with.....we treat Gracie like a beauty queen? Yep....that is what we are doing when we tell her not to beat up her brother, knock down her soccer opponents, wrestle with her brothers friends or fall out of trees!
