Today is picture day at Moira’s elementary school. She’s wearing a spiffy new outfit and we’re in the bathroom combing her hair and attempting to force her bangs to lay down instead of up on her forehead. I noticed she had some white stuff around her mouth (breakfast of some sort) and leaned down for a closer look. It was then that I noticed that she hadn’t brushed her teeth…a little morning breath action.
Me: “Honey, you need to go brush your teeth please – you need clean teeth for the picture plus it’ll give you fresh breath.”
Moira: “Do I have to?”
Me: “Yes”
Moira: “But they aren’t smell pictures!”
