Running the streets after dark necessitates bright clothing. Yesterday evening, after donning my black tights and long sleeve shirt, I added my bright pink skirt and obnoxiously pink fleece. I also put on my matching pink running socks. Enter my 7th grader...
I ask, "Tell me, does this running outfit look like cotton candy threw up on me?" She regarded my appearance briefly. "Yes. It really does."
And then we dissolved into laughter.
Just before heading out the door I put on my headband, also pink. "To finish off the look, I have to add my pink headband," I told her. "You mean your cotton candy vomit?" she asked without missing a beat.
More laughter.
My girl, who is not a fan of pink, fully accepts her cotton-candy-vomit-loving mom. My heart is full. :)
