You had 400 people at your wedding. Gifts totaled $200,000. Vladimir and Natalia hate their names and you screech at them that they honor their heritage. You are desperately hoping you get to the mail before your DH does when this month's AmEx bill arrives. It's just that recently Natalia told you she hates you and the only thing you could think to do was take her to Tyson's Corner for the day. And you couldn't leave out Vladimir or then HE might hate you. There is one four day period this summer when they will be between summer camps and you are already concocting the story to give your doctor so that he might prescribe you some Xanax. Your little 2 lb dog with runny eyes, Chanel, is your real baby. She eats Lucky Charms right off your tongue.

Ding ding ding! Even funnier than Cleveland Park running off with yoga teacher to the Hampton. My favorite, until now.

Dawn and Danielle's Mom here-- I actually did get a belly piercing but in the 80's in Portland, OR. Unless we went to college together there is no way you could known that. I have gone way prude since then though.

You're African-American. Melanie is a Daddy's little girl and Terence gets jealous that his sister gets attention for just being cute while he can only get attention for being good at sports, so he acts out and gets in trouble for hurting Melanie. Dad doesn't know how to interact with Melanie except for commenting on her looks. Both parents thought about how the names would be perceived on resumes, but REALLY loved the name Terence and thought the name Melanie was so, SO pretty. The family attends family reunions every summer where everybody wears the same t-shirt, and meets up at a public park.

Haha. Nice try and good stereo typing effort

I am white, spouse is from Burma ( what? Never heard of it? Not surprised - look it up, yes google earth is your friend)

Haha. It's been Myanmar for over decade. Way to educate yourself and your kids on their heritage.

And the US doesn't recognize it as Myanmar. I assume you are not American?

You tell everyone you meet that your husband is from Burma, daring them to ask you "Where is that?" Or "Don't you mean Myanmar?" so you can correct them and make them feel small. Your neighborhood has lots of BBQs but they never invite you.

My husband isnt the one from Burma. Imagine, two people know what Burma is?

PP back, again. I created profiles for Shaylon's mom, Jack, Leo and Max's mom and Sailor Rose's mom, among others.

I'll try this one.

One girl is blonde and the other has chestnut hair but the sisters have ethereal blue eyes. Random strangers tell them that their eyes are gorgeous.

Sometimes, you call them Linnie and Mary. Not often. Prefer full names.

You dress your girls beautifully, in boutique clothes that they promptly wear out climbing trees, running around at the playground, doing very active, kind of boyish things. Your girls are loud and shrieky together and their inside voice is their outside voice. Both go off to school with their hair brushed and styled with a headband or maybe a ponytail and bow, but at the end of the day, their hair is down and the hair bow...lost (check in the bottom of the Vera Bradley backpack, inside pocket).

You've decorated their room in a hip, up to the minute style that would include large, stylized owls. Your house is urban cool with a modern, hip decor. You'd like to say minimalist, but Dear Lord, Linnea and Mary want to collect everything and leave their stuff everywhere.

You are a hip mom, but consider yourself kind of an outlier. You're not as superficial as the moms at the girls' private, language- instruction school. One car family. One of you can walk to work. Your DH will be getting the most expensive home espresso machine for a Fathers Day. Both of you drink craft beer. One of you was Goth in high school.

Parents are black. Cierra gets angry that everyone talks about the singer to her. Meagan is jealous that her name doesn't end in an A like her sisters. When the mom's friend heard she was naming her first daughter Jalaya, she warned mom if Jalaya got fat kids would call her Jumbalaya, and mom scoffed, but secretly tries to make sure Jalaya stays very active and encourages veggies. Dad loves his girls, secretly has a favorite, and tries not to let the other two know. Also, Dad wants a dog.

The bold sentences are correct!

Vladimir, natalia

You grew up in Lakeland, Florida but always had high aspirations. You got a scholarship to the University of Florida and never attended a single football game. You attended grad school in Chicago and your concentration was in women's studies. You gave your girls names you considered to be strong and fierce. And then the Mirena IUD was released and you felt like it had all been for naught.

This thread is beyond hysterical.
