Seriously!

Okay. I know that Kyra doesn't have a lot of hair. I accept that. I know that she is almost 3 and we still can't do piggies in her hair. I accept that. But for goodness sake, when the child is wearing a pink shirt with ruffles, and HOT pink pants, pink shoes, AND has a barrette in her hair, WHY ON EARTH DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING "What a cute little boy!" Okay I can accept that an older man might now catch the not so subtle hints, but yesterday we were approched by a WOMAN, and were told "What a cute little boy!" And of course I sit there like a goober, and either don't correct them, or I very politely say "Um, no she is a little girl", while inside I'm yelling "Why on earth would I put a little boy in pink clothes and put a bow in his hair! Seriously?"

This is exactly what Kyra was wearing yesterday. And you can't see if but she does have a barrette in her hair!
You know how there is that comedian that tours with Jeff Foxworthy, the "Here's your sign" guy. I'm going to be the "Seriously? Did you just say that? Seriously?" girl. Okay, I'm done venting, and I'm off to make Kyra more hair bows.

Some people are just so un-observant....(is that a word???) Kyra is a girl in every sense of the word!

People used to ask me if Mark and Makenzie were identical twins. Seriously....
I would always say, "yes, all except for one part." Then they would get a puzzled look on their face trying to figure out the "one part".
When they finally got it they always felt so stupid and I just had to laugh.

Oh I'm so sorry. Masaru's been called a girl in blue clothing and overalls with no top on underneath. Some people just don't get it. I can't understand why people even guess. It's like people coming up to me and guessing where I"m from "So ahhhhhh you're from Australia right?"I"m like "No and maybe next time you approach someone just simply ask where there from and don't make a fool of yourself for guessing, I'm from New Zealand and lots of us don't like being called Aussies"
I've only had 1 or 2 people guess right, out of about 1 million LOL

I agree with the comment that people are very unobservant. She is such a cute little GIRL and you should tell the next person that. Maybe that lady dresses her boys in pink! You never know with people. (0:

She does look like a girl. People are just stupid and quite unobservant. One time, Karla Williams and I were out with our girls - Paige was in a blue carseat with a onesie on and Elizabeth was in a pink carseat with a dress and giant bow on her head, and somehow one lady thought Paige was a girl and Elizabeth was a boy. Come on...

She is a cutie and all girl.
