As a father of boys, I consider myself lucky. When it comes to buying toys for my kids, I know if I get them something I think is cool, they'll be totally happy. Spaceships, super heroes, dinosaurs, pirates — none of this is a stretch for me. But what about all the fathers of girls out there?
I have a friend. A single father of an adorable little 4-year old girl. He loves her, and of course like any father wants her to be happy. He mans up and doesn't balk when she wants unicorns and princesses and frilly dresses and all manner of girly things. So he didn't think twice about buying her a pink princess bubble wand. All hearts and flowers and little stars, it looked perfectly innocent and completely girly. Everything seemed right in her little pink princess world. Then he turned it upside down.

ReplyDeleteWow. Um. Does the "pink princess bubble wand" (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) require AA batteries, perchance?
Just the sort of thing every girl wants to blow.

ReplyDeleteEgads.
Oh my. That's awesome. I mean, her dad should take that away.

Can you ask your friend where he got that? 'cause I think I could really go for some...um...bubbles right about now.
ReplyDeleteHoly hell, I'd like to see what kind of bubbles come out of that wand.
ReplyDeleteOMG - a toy manufacturer out there is having a laugh about this right now. How could that possibly be a coincidence?
ReplyDeleteIs it wrong that I just got a little tingly?

ReplyDeleteTell him to try shopping for her at Toys R Us rather than Eden's Fantasies. ROFL!
