So yesterday, Avery told me that her new "friend" told her that she wasn't pretty. Of course, my immediate reaction was "AVERY, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!!"- and of course, Avery said confidently, "Yes, I know--I'm pretty!" (sassy, huh?). Afterall, when Avery was 2 she would tell people/strangers that her name was "cute" when they would ask Avery her name....)
Anyways, of course, I asked Avery what she said back when her "friend" said that mean comment....Avery didn't say anything back to that little girl.
Can you believe that little 3 yr old girls are so mean..... Come on!
Look at this precious face....
So I asked my little angel today if her "friend" was nice to her today. She said "no!" Of course, my heart was beating a little faster--thinking that this little girl had told my BEAUTIFUL baby that she wasn't "pretty" again.... so then I ask "Avery, why wasn't your "friend" nice to you today?".... And then Avery looked away smiling...and said "She told on me to the teacher"... of course, I asked "why?"..... Avery says-- "I was being mean to her". :) Haha ( I know I shouldn't condone naughty behavior--- but it was really cute- and no worries... I told her to always "be nice" to others) :) At least, Avery had a good day at school today. :)
...I can only imagine what Cooper will be up to when he's Avery's age.....

that's hilarious!!
my middle kid thinks he's Lightning McQueen. my wife and i don't do a good job of helping him think any differently.
What is it with 3 year olds and telling each other that they are not pretty? This same thing happened to Lauren last year in her class. A little girl told her that she wasn't 'pretty enough.' It nearly broke my heart. I almost chewed out the little girl's mother and then decided to refrain. I just told Lauren that what was said was not true and to not play with the little girl. It's so sad that the bullying is already starting!!!
