Owen’s Future Wife

So, after a what? A 5 year hiatus? I’m finally back with a brand new Owen story! Don’t get too excited. Once I told him I was blogging about it, he kind of shut down.

The kids LOVE when I read “Owen Stories” from the blog. Though, they’re kind of mad I haven’t been keeping up with them. Don’t they realize that stories where I end up in tears or pulling my hair out aren’t exactly heartwarming or funny? They probably don’t care.

Anyway, we read about Owen taking Peter’s phone to school tonight and we started talking about the name of the blog. Vance asked why I named it that and I said it was so his future wife knew what she was getting into since my darling husband was “perfect” as a child so I didn’t realize there was a chance we’d have anything but perfect, polite, and QUIET kids. So, there we are talking about Owen’s future wife and he starts listing her stats:

* Blonde (kind of offended a little ... or maybe I should be more worried if she looked like me?)
* Blue (or brown) eyes ...  he better not start describing Barbie or we are going to butt heads
* Hot pink lipstick (umm???)
* Hot pink nail polish (on vacation? Totes agree)
* Hot pink dress (now, I’m getting worried)
* She’ll be a lawyer (in a Hot pink dress??)
* Wait, she’ll wear a white dress for work (definitely more trustworthy in white!)

And, her name will be Roselle. So, Roselle, if you’re out there, I can’t wait to meet you! Just please, please, please, don’t wear all hot pink the first time we meet. I won’t be able to help but judge.
