Why Daughters Are Great

Last night my youngest daughter and I were sitting around the kitchen table enjoying a glass of wine and  talking.  And she just burst out laughing. She said, "Mom! I just read your jammie shirt." I did get new jammies, they were 75% off, cotton, and comfortable and they fit! But I never really looked at them. So after she said that I looked at the top and it said, "Kind of on a diet." Then my daughter said, "Wait! Look at the rest of the words." and she is laughing and laughing. Written on the pants were, "It looked good in the store." "hope it fits" "skinny jeans." My daughter said, "oh! you have to have another pajama party. You cannot let these go to waste."  Then my husband came in and said what are you laughing at?..and we showed him the sayings. His face was stone cold. He said, "I don't get it." See, why it is great to have daughters?

  8. No daughters here. This was so funny.

  13. I have two...nothing sweeter than daughters : )

    ReplyDelete

  14. Ha! That's funny! I guess only another female would get it. It sounds like your jammies are really cute. I need a pair like that!

    ReplyDelete

  15. I think maybe your husband was playing it smart...him laughing at those saying just would not be as welcome as another female. :)

    ReplyDelete

  16. Daughters are great for laughing together. My husband is a riot, though. He may have gotten it.

    ReplyDelete

  17. Daughters are wonderful!! Now I would love to see a pic of the pajamas.

    ReplyDelete

  18. Oh, lol! Yes, daughters are marvelous and I thank the Lord for mine!

    ReplyDelete

  19. I will echo the sentiment....daughters are truly a delight. I want to see a picture of the pjs.

    ReplyDelete

  20. Those are great pj's. No daughters here, but I've got some nieces who share that "female-ness" with me :)

    ReplyDelete

  21. hahaha!! hilarious post Mom...yay for daughters, sisters, Fathers and husbands to keep us smiling :)

    ReplyDelete

  22. What kind of wine was your daughter enjoying? How old is she? Are you raising her like a French person, being liberal with the blanc et rouge? (All in good fun.) I have only a four-legged son who thinks everything I do is fascinating, especially when it involves his food dish.

    ReplyDelete

  24. LOL...how cute :) Daughters are terrific. Can't wait to have my own.

    ReplyDelete

  25. Men NEVER get it! REALLY NEVER get it- xo Diana

  27. Daughters are wonderful! My hubby wouldn't notice anything like that, or get it. He's not observant, at all! The last time I cut my hair (before this time, when he cut it) it took a week before I finally had to prompt him to notice that I'd cut 6 inches off.

    ReplyDelete

  29. smiles....so what does it all mean?

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  34. It must be one of those men are from Mars and women are from Venus things because I don't get it.

  37. That's funny because my husband would have said the same thing..."I don't get it." My 9 year old daughter and I are always laughing at crazy stuff until the point we have tears flowing sometimes. Thanks for the laugh. :)

    ReplyDelete

  38. That is hilarious! I hope my daughter and I have the same bond. And yes- men just don't get it!

    ReplyDelete

  39. I don't get it, either. There is a reason I have three boys...I wouldn't have known what to do with a girl.

    ReplyDelete

  68. It's imperative to have daughters (or even some good DILs) that get the humor that will totally escape the boys. Love my daughter! (And my DILs!)

    ReplyDelete

  69. Women understand each other than menn:)

    ReplyDelete

  70. That is something I totally missed - having all sons. Poor husband though - they just don't get it!

    ReplyDelete

  73. Oh yes. They will share their secrets and worries (some you wish they would keep to themselves), laugh with you, hold your hand, and be there for you when you are sick. I have three daughters and am a very lucky lady.

    ReplyDelete

  74. Can't wait until my daughter is old enough for moments like this. Enjoy!
