jewellsmommy Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 It was definitely a nightgown that she wanted. It happened in the pajama section of the girls' clothing area, and I heard her say nightgown a couple of times. I would just buy the damn Frozen dress from the toy section and say, "Look, it's a nightgown and Rapunzel looks different because she found a new stylist." Problem solved. Of course, my daughter is getting a toy bow and arrow, Yugioh cards, and a robotic fish, among other equally nerdy gifts, so I may be out of the loop on this whole princess thing. Mine are getting robotic fish too! And dd is getting robotic birds as well. She has always been my difficult to shop for child. Duct tape, rocks, portal-2 long jump socks, buttons, a real bow and arrow, and a lot of felt are among last year's presents. This year she asked for these silver hippo salt and pepper shakers :huh: that we saw in target. She'll probably put glitter in them. Weird child. She is also getting some stuff for her rats. Merida from Brave was the only princess that dd ever really identified with, thus the bow and arrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Peregrine Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Because I can only like this once, I just had to say you win the internet. I read the original post (for context) and this story to my 14 year old daughter and she said, through her laughter, "That was amazing." Yes. You win. The whole internet. Totally!

That's why my dd is obsessed with bows, too. :) She already wore out her official Brave bow, so this year she's getting one of those Rebelle nerf bows. The Merida dolls I bought her a year or so ago went totally untouched, of course, but the bow she used until all of the arrows were finally broken.

GailV Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Because we are warped, we started inserting imagery about getting a Rapunzel nightgown for a 5yo with a psychotic mom into that obnoxious song about the Christmas shoes. I can now live through being stuck somewhere having to listen to that song, although I'll probably start giggling maniacally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I thought of this thread today while I was shopping at Target. I had ordered online for in store pick up. They couldn't find my order and it took forever. While I was waiting, a woman started yelling. She was irate. Apparently she wanted some $200+ item from the jewelry department and didn't have any ID with her and so they wouldn't allow her to use the CC she had. She was yelling that she wanted it anyway, etc...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
