I have been meaning to write a Jenn Drama entry for posterity so her drama project was the perfect opportunity to do this :) It has taken us WEEKS to come up with an idea for this "How TO" demonstration in Drama. I have wracked my brain with ideas and suggestions, all vetoed by Jenn with disgust. Now she has had NO ideas of her own mind you!! I had some classic ideas, my personal favorite being that she could show the class how to: Be Joe Jonas' #1 Fan!! We could take pictures of her room, she could take in the buttons she has made with his pictures, all the other shrines to him etc., make a poster outlining her hatred of Taylor Swift etc. Also vetoed!! Finally, I remembered the pilgrim hat cookies and got a thumbs up with 2 days to go with the project! I will post a picture of the finished result.
This is just one of the examples of drama with Jenn. A couple of weeks ago I received a text from Jenn (in the same house) requesting hot chocolate and waffles be brought to her bed as she was cold!! This request was rejected. This same day we spent 2 hours in Aeropostle shopping for jeans (her 1 pair that fit her strict criteria now had a hole in the crotch), we HAD to buy jeans! Her strict criteria is that they have to be skin tight and no flair!! It is impossible to find 00 jeans tight enough for Jenn's liking!! I am sure they are still talking about us in the store as they searched for every pair of jeans in the store for us!! I finally said truly these jeans have got to be better than the jeans with a hole in the crotch!!
One last Jenn drama story is Jenn and her rubberbands on her braces. She does not to wear the rubberbands on her braces and makes up her own rules for when to wear them. On Friday morning as she was leaving for school I asked her where her bands were and she said she was only going to wear them at night because they bugged her during the day. After quite a "discussion" she put her bands in. That night she said she did not wear them at night (did she think I forgot the morning conversation!!) because of the way she slept they would come off and she would choke and die. I said I was willing to take that risk and her last good night to me was "Good night, you will never see me again, I will die in the night and it is all your fault!!" The next morning there were no bands in to which Jenn said she woke up in the middle of the night to see them flying out of her mouth across the room: WHATEVER!!
Jenn is a very funny girl and keeps me laughing and on my toes at all times. I truly adore her and am so glad to be her Mom and take this adventure with her :)
Classics--all of them. Adore that Jenn!!!!!
