IF you happen to have a young child in the house and you HAPPEN to be in the bathroom standing at the sink doing their hair in the near future and IF you're over uh, thirty?
DO NOT put your hands on your child's shoulders and take your face and put it next to theirs and smile in the mirror at the two of you.
Because if you do, your skin will look OLD and WRINKLED and well just, AWFUL next to your child's gorgeous creamy even-toned plumped complexion.
Trust me on this one. Do not try this for yourself.
I'm still trying to recover.
I'm Leanne and I'm a tired mama. I work, I parent, I juggle and I don't seem to get enough sleep. Welcome to the place where I rant about all these things...
Oh NO!!! You didn't???
I did this two a couple of weeks ago. . . I'm still depressed about it.

Sounds depressing...
I think I may be passing this very useful info on to my friends.

Yeah, and while you're at it don't toss your hair in with your child's, or there will be tears.

Thanks for the warning. I can't afford to traumatize myself that way.

AGH! Yeah, and when that happens before coffee, it's even worse. Sigh...

Unless the child has the bane of pubescent skin. Then those parenthesis framing the nose and mouth and fine lines highlighting the eye area seem like a reasonable price to pay for not enduring acne on a regular basis. Very reasonable trade in my book.
