Why Picasso went bald

Me: [trying to move along a very pokey Soph at bedtime] Okay. Time to pick one of your stuffed animals to sleep with. Let’s go.

Soph: [springs to feet, stands in middle of room scratching her head]

Me: What are you doing?

Soph: I’m an old artist so I have to scratch my head while I’m thinking.

LOL I love it! She’ll think of anything to delay the inevitable. The other night, it was discussing the world’s most dangerous animals. When I suggested boa constrictor, she reminded me that it was a reptile.

Obviously, the narcolepsy gene is not evident. Warm milk?

At least she was an old artist and not an old baseball player…

Aw, where did she get that from? Too cute. Since I heard that one of the children at my daughter’s daycare has (egad!) lice, I am going to stay in utter denial if she scratches her head and just think to myself, “She’s an old artist”.
