[quote=Anonymous]I want to start by saying I know this will sound petty, but it's become a real problem.  my Dh had my dcs (3 and 5) pick out my xmas gift from them - and they picked out this hideous pin.  It's a weird shape and it's bright red with blue and green colors on it.  It's just...just...ugly!

Come xmas morning - of course I'm all "ooh" and "aah" and pin it on my robe.  And they were very proud that they picked it out "all by themselves"  Well, since then, everywhere we went - church, Xmas dinner at BIL's house, xmas party over the weekend they insist I wear their "pretty pin."  I've been mortified all weekend having to display this monstrosity.  First of all, I never wear pins anyway - I think they're for old people (and DH knows this!!) and secondly, it's just ugly.

So, I think the whole ordeal is over but this morning - I had to go out and they chase me down and tell me I "forgot" to wear their pin.  I try telling them it doesn't "match" and I'll wear it when I wear red and blue again, but they insisted saying it looks pretty!

To clarify, I'm of course, not mad at the girls.  But I am pissed at DH for at least not steering them towards something I would like.  I mean it really looks like he just took them to someplace and let them go wild and pick whatever was the brightest most colorful and biggest thing.  I'm just pissed because when they went shopping with me for his gift, I guided them to something I knew he'd like.  And now I'm stuck with this thing that I have to wear all.the.time.

Question:  Is there any way I can fix this without hurting the girls' feelings?  [/quote]
