One of those moments
I’m an expressive person. Just ask anyone who has spent any amount of time with me and he or she will tell you I am passionate and at times loud. A part of my expression comes from my forehead. I move it in all kinds of directions… happy or sad… or mad.
So fast forward to a conversation I was having with Jordan.
She had crawled up onto my lap and was feeling my face. She starts rubbing my forehead and declares: “Those are your mad bumps and those are your happy bumps.”
Kid interpretation: I have wrinkles. And they’re starting to get obvious thanks to my nonstop facial expressions.
I think it’s sweet… and I might need to go do some kind of rejuvenation facial mask.
They are not wrinkles… those are evidence you have lived and expressed yourself!
Thanks Adrienne! I like that!
You are soooo not old or wrinkly! You have beautiful skin!
And kids say the darnedest things. My 3-year-old cousin Luke asked me if I was 50 and then proceeded to ask if I was my sister’s “mommy”.
Silly kids! Thanks Caitlin. I never figured I’d be a vain person as I grow older… but dang, mad and happy bumps. Too freaking funny.
It happens to the best of us. Wrinkles, that is.
