1. I guess everyone has a unique scent. Breanna’s? Her head smells like fresh bread. My favorite is after I’ve washed her hair and then I curl up with her and stick my nose right in her hair and she smells like faint Johnson’s and warm, fresh bread. I have no idea why and George thinks I’m a little crazy. It’s entirely possible that he’s right. But I still think of a bakery when I sniff her head.
2. Today we went to the park again and I was sitting with the girls in one of those playhouse slide things. It has two connecting sections with a tunnel to crawl through in the middle. Hayley was peering over the side at the outside of the tunnel and she said, “Hey there’s a word here! It has an M. M for Mommy, Mommy. I think it says Mommy!”
Later, when it was time to move on to the monkey bars, out of curiosity I looked over the side. It did indeed have an “M”. In actuality though, it said, “Motherfucker”. Eh, close enough.

See, she was absolutely correct. lol
Too funny! It’s a good thing she didn’t know what it really said. Who in the world would write that on play equipment?
I don’t think the bread scent thing is weird. Ginger doesn’t smell like anything to me, but when Spencer was a baby I always thought his poops smelled like bacon. Made changing dirty diapers a not-totally-horrible experience ; )
OMG. LOL @ #2.
We were at a park over spring break and someone had written “Go fuck a goat” on the assphalt. Nice!
My 8 year old’s head smells a bit musty – even if it’s freshly washed. My husband thinks I’m a freak because I love it. It’s hers.
