What does it say about me…

When every pretend game in our house starts one of two ways,
“Pretend we’re sisters and our parents are dead” (not sure why they have to pretend to be sisters)
or
“Pretend our mom is mean and doesn’t care about us” (but if they have to pretend it does that mean it’s not true?)

Don’t worry my sister and I used to pretend our parents were on a far away vacation too busy to come home when we were in a horrible car accident (yet came out unscathed so we looked beautiful lounging in our hospital beds) and we had no one in the world to care for us except Paunch and John (remember them, from CHIPS?)
But now I think my mom is really involved and helpful and my good friend. Your girls will come around!
They pretend to be sisters, which is a truth; and they pretend you are mean, so that must be . . . .?
Maybe you just need to explain the difference between pretend and reality.
Know how they say “Pretend we’re sisters”and they ARE really sisters… well when they say “pretend our mom is mean”…. maybe…..their mom really IS….
oh, never mind.
We used to pretend our parents were mean…’cause they weren’t, and hey? Where’s the drama in that?!
Amber, how do you track when people have updated their blogs?
