Shinny, sparkly and flavored

November 29th, 2005

I purchased a three pack of lip gloss as a stocking stuffer for PJ. My first thought was to just give them to her. You know, only girls should be wearing lip stick, gloss, eye shadow, etc. My second thought was, the boys are going to be totally jealous and I know there will be bickering and fighting and carrying on over gloss on Christmas morn.

You see, my boys love the make-up just as much as their little sis. In fact, as long as it is flavored, I think KP would not only apply but eat a whole tube of it. Now CT, he is beyond eating it, he just enjoys the feeling it imparts on his lips, all soft and moist like.

Side bar: have I ever mentioned how much I dislike the word moist? It unnerves me. Moist. Say it. MOIST. What do you think of? My brainstorm goes like this…hot, uncomfortable, toe jam, smegma, hot stinky crotch. See that is why I don’t like the word, it drums up bad images.

Anyway, back to the balm. Does a mother foster the love of the lip gloss on Christmas or should I start the Boy’s School of Hard Knocks and make sure the boys get the rough and tumble and the girl gets the pretty pretty princess?

You don’t even need to answer, I just decided.

My boys look great in lip gloss!
