Parents Honestly Shouldn't be Able To Dress People

Like, I was cute (obv) but the plaid skirt,
matching headband, MATCHING PIN.
HELP.
I mean. If the photo I'm about to share with you isn't enough...

Let's talk about this.

First off, parents are usually past their prime. (No offense parents, you rule. Good job teaching me English, how to be nice to people, and like, walking. Definitely helpful.)

But c'mon. Their biggest concern is definitely no longer what they're wearing. I remember a solid phase in mama Francine's life of stirrup pants due to convenience. (Sorry, mom.) AND if that wasn't bad enough, I also remember the transference OF the horror OF the stirrup pants to me. NOT OKAY, MOM, NOT OKAY.*

Secondly, their next biggest concern is definitely not what their mini-me is wearing either. They're cleaning up after this tiny tyrant and definitely aren't too worried that said tyrant looks nice while drawing flowers on the wall in crayons.

THAT SAID, when said youngster starts being sent to school, let's talk fashion for a second. For your viewing pleasure I have attached my first day of kindergarten outfit. I LOOK LIKE THE YELLOW WIGGLE. WAS THERE A COLOR WAR GOING ON? WAS THERE?

I sure hope so. Cause if so, nice one, mom.

IN CONCLUSION, WE SHOULD TOTALLY JUST STAB CAESER. (No, but someone else should dress children.)

*I will admit stirrup pants are pretty damned awesome. Your leggings stay IN your boots. Prediction: comeback. Also, great name, stirrup pants, great name. More to come on stirrup pants.

Okay But, Pollywogs.

You may have never really thought about it, but there are tadpoles, and then there are frogs. But like, in between those two things, there i...
