Honesty

Don't go shopping with a 4 year old.

Unless you want them to be brutally honest with you.

I'm looking for some maternity clothes- capris and dresses- and as I tried them on, Emma said the following things:

"That doesn't look right, Mom."
"That's too tight on you"
" I don't think that's pretty"
" You don't look good in that"

Whether or not she really meant what she was saying (where'd she learn to talk like that anyway?), I walked away from the stores without buying anything.

I'm not sure if I next time I should go without her or take her along for an honest opinion.
