This lovely number perfectly compliments a pair of ratty jeans or oil-soaked coveralls.
It's also the perfect shirt for watching NASCAR or wrestling... or really, anytime you feel like drinking beer.

Our daughter is a big fat liar.
In fact, I'm going to start calling her wikipedia because if she tells you something, and you cite her as the source in your book report. Your teacher will write on your paper, in big red marker, "please use reliable sources for important work".
Whenever she answers a question like, say, "did you clean your room" or "who broke this wall into a hundred-thousand pieces" or "were you the one who licked all the graham crackers", my instinct is to click her history tab and check to see if the most recent contributor has a history of fact-vandalism.
Why, just this week she was regaling us with the details of her upcoming adventures as a lunch worker at her new school. "...and that's why you don't need to pack me a lunch. Lunch workers get free hot lunch." Sounds plausible, right?
Fast forward to that evening >>>
"How was lunch worker duty?"
"Oh, umm... they switched me to next week because... umm... Kelli didn't bring her lunch and... umm..."
I can't help but think just how very much fun this little personality trait will be after she's discovered boys and meth.

I thought those meth types were really honest and trustworthy?

Just tell her...

...that every time she tells a lie, Paulie Shore and/or CarrotTop receive funding for their next movie. That'll nip it in the bud.

Would it help?

If I just tell you that it is the age and they eventually grow out of this?
I went through this with each of our kids, this phase where they lie about EVERYTHING, even stupid stuff that there is no need to lie about. Eventually they outgrew it.

Comments GONE!

I think your blog is eating my comments or you are *gasp* deleting them!
Either way, I said before that I think we have the EXACT same daughter!

You would think she would

You would think she would lie about things that gave her a social standing of some sort, but telling a friend she had lice is not my idea of climbing the social ladder.

Hello Everyone
You could always
tell her that lying is a blood atonement sin. Just sayin. She might buy it.
