That’s how my folks did it. We weren’t religious, so they just talked with us. It worked pretty well. That’s what we’re doing with our kid.

It's kinda nice. Solace though, eeeesh.

IIRC Reese and Ryan Philippe are both very short, so their 8-9 y.o. looking 6-7 makes sense.

The UPS truck must be the cat equivilent of a limo; they have so many boxes to choose from!

Yes! I Iike to raise one eyebrow and ever so slightly curl my lip while maintaining silent direct eye contact for four seconds. Works every time.

It also kind of looks like it is not the right size for her? If your giant rock is constantly flopping to the side, your band is too big and you need it resized to fit your tiny goddess fingers.

Walking around = ‘stepping out’

Being outdoors = showing off

So, trying to continue her livelihood makes her at fault here? She’s not your annoying Instagram friend looking for validation, she’s literally a model.
