Butthole

Norah had a play date with a friend from school last weekend. She is still little enough that play dates for the kids are also play dates for the parents. Thankfully, the parents of her friend were quite lovely and we had a nice afternoon with them. At one point the topic turned to media and books and how hard it is sometimes to support our girls' obsessions with all things pink and princess. I was complaining about the book Pinkalicious and from across the room Norah announced, "we don't like Pinkalicious. She's a real butthole."

Well, she is.

she's not wrong there! our copy miraculously disappeared. This feels like one of those moments where you know you should correct her language...but it's just so darn funny.

I found this list of subversive princess books and filed it away for that dreaded time. But here it is:
