How old are you anyways?!?!

I think that I've mentioned before that people always mistake me for much younger than I am. (I get asked for ID for booze and sometimes lottery, and once, quite recently, I was asked if I was old enough to drive.)  I should take this as a compliment.  Mostly I do.  When I'm with my mom, people think that we are sisters and when I'm with my daughter people also think we are sisters.  I think when all three of us are together, people just don't know what to think.

Yesterday, Lovey took Kiddo to the dentist for me as I had a work function to attend.  I am familiar with the people in the office and on our first visit, they mistook Kiddo for my sister.  We cleared that up.  Usually, I go into the room with Kiddo and talk to the dentist, mainly because he's a funny guy.  Lovey chose to stay in the waiting room while Kiddo went in.

I think there may have been a new hygenist because the regular one knows me.  The new hygenist asked Kiddo, "What does your brother do?"  I can only imagine the confused look on her face because the hygenist clarified herself by mentioning 'your brother who's outside waiting for you'.  If I know my Kiddo, she laughed directly in this woman's face before explaining who Lovey is.

We will be young forever!!
