Womanless Beauty Pageant

Tonight we went to our local Wild Wings restaurant to a Womanless Beauty Pageant. A family who has a set of twins at my children's daycare puts on this event to raise money for the March of Dimes. At first we were a little frustrated because we couldn't get a table and we knew the kids were going to get hungry and we were afraid the situation would take a turn for the worse, lots of people, three very small kids, and no way to get any food. But soon enough our two oldest children connected with some of their friends and the last thing on their mind was food! They had a great time! They danced while these men came out dressed as women. They jumped up and down and clapped and had a great time! I wasn't sure if Colin, who is 4, knew if they were men or not. I don't know if anyone told him but he ended up telling me, "Mama those are men dressed like women!" It was funny to me that he knew that, I wasn't going to tell him. I'm not sure Olivia had a clue! This was a great event for a great charity that I personally support as well. If you are reading you can donate to my MOD webpage and fund raising effort at: http://www.marchforbabies.org/ColinsMama. Next year, we won't bring the kids or we will get there early! On the way home, it was already after 9 so I started preparing the kids before we got home for what was going to happen. First we were going to take a shower, then we were going to put our PJ's on, brush our teeth, and go to bed. We just went to the dentist today and admitted that we were lazy about brushing the kids teeth at night, we got a "talkin to" from the dentist about that one. So...Colin said to me in the van, "It's going to be too late to do all that when we get home so you need to take one of those things out". He has a bad gag reflex and really hates to have his teeth brushed...so guess which one of those things he wanted us to strike from the list?
