Those were the words spoken by Sunshine on the way to my parents' house on Saturday night.
Hubby and I were going to be going out for our anniversary and a nice evening alone. Sunshine and Monkey have their bags packed to spend the night. It started out with me (showering first), and putting on a nice pair of pants, blouse, and earrings. Sunshine comes in and says, "You look pretty Mommy." Aaawww, thanks sweetie... She continues, "You should wear earrings all the time." Hmmm.... (On a side note she has asked if we were going to wedding when I've put a nice dress on. Sadly, the answer has always been "yes.").
So there we are, sitting in the car, on the way to my parents'. I turn on the defroster, because it's been raining all day, when she asks about the smell. Smell? What smell? All I can smell is... my perfume. So I ask her.
"Do you mean my perfume?"
"Yeah, your perfume." Pause for a few minutes. "Mommy, what's perfume?"
Wow! Do I go out so infrequently that my daughter feels the need to comment about me wearing earrings and is confused about the odd smell being blown around the car? Obviously I need to get out more often.
