Glides on Smooth?

A couple weeks ago, Tony took Janae shopping. They came home with most everything on the list and and then some. One of the extras happened to be deodorant for the 11 yr old herself. (This seems to be a tradition for Daddy to buy them their first one. Something we'll have to remember for the two other girls coming along =)

A few days later, Britnee and I were in the dining room talking and Janae came bustling through the hall on her way to the living room. We heard her mumble to herself as she passed by, "That stuff doesn't glide on nearly as smooth as it says it does!" I was puzzled at first and then realized, she must have been trying out her deodorant. I called her name and asked her if she had twisted it up. She responded that she hadn't been able to get it to budge in either direction. Britnee immediately went and brought it out to see, yelling Janae's name as she came back in the room. The stick was a good quarter to half an inch BELOW the plastic! Ouch!

Big sister fixed it and we both had a good chuckle after admonishing Janae to always make sure the white part of the stick was showing well above the plastic container!

Ouch... those growing up years can be painful at times! (I'm glad I don't have to go back and redo them, and I'm not particularly looking forward to getting there with my kiddos...) :)

What a great story!!! Sounds like the stuff we are going through in my household.....it rough on all of us!! But, it can be fun if we try to look at the "funny" side of growing up. These little laughs always help the process. Thanks for sharing such a great story!!!
