mama says...

mommy says i suffer from the same affliction as she--lots of tops (shirts), but not lots of bottoms (pants). so mommy felt that she just had to order me (all on sale) some leggings (black) and jeans (with ruffle bell bottoms) just to make sure that i get to wear all of my tops.

i mean, the thing is, i do have a lot of bottoms, but they're either part of a set & used as such (see photo in which i'm doing my signature pose), or they're part of a set to which i never had the top (and i just can't match with any one of my random tops/bodysuits). the troubles of a child, right? and i'm a child on public assistance healthcare (did i say that right?). anyway, "i was [basically] born poor black child..." and i'm not ashamed to admit it. these are tough times, and both my parents work really hard, but neither one gets health insurance, so they do what they have to do in order to take excellent care of me.

i mean, the funny thing is, mommy & daddy haven't spent any money on clothes for me. true story. ok, well, mommy bought me a sesame street t'shirt for ChanuMas that will fit me in the summer, but otherwise, everything has been a gift or a generous hand-me-down from a super cool family at mommy's school. i actually have far too many clothes, also an affliction of my mom.

i'm a really lucky girl. that fact is not lost on me...

gotta get some grub...enjoy these various photos of me in cute outfits.

UPDATE: mommy wanted me to make sure everyone knows that i was wearing that flapper-headband for the photo only. i don't wear bows on my head--it looks ridiculous on me. it may be cute on some babies, but there's really no need to accentuate what mommy and daddy call my "big ass bald head."
