whose kid is this?

I took Stephanie to school for drama club practice this afternoon. I came home to find this.


Maybe you can't see clearly how filthy she is. How about a close up.


Holy street grime, Batman! What have you been doing? Turns out, she was under the influence of the neighbor boys and can balance standing on the skateboard while careening rolling down the slope of the driveway.  Good to see those dance/gymnastics lessons are paying off in the balance department. She was quite proud to show me this. Don't be fooled, however, by the dirt, skateboard, and desire to hang out with the boys next door. This gal is no tomboy. Her next trick was to put the skateboard on level ground, stand on it, and do a booty shake in her very girly way.  There may be dirt on the outside, but there's pure girl on the inside.

Are you kidding? I think she looks maaavelous like that. Can she stand and ride the board yet? When she learns that the next step is holding onto Stephanie's bike while she zooms down the street; then holding onto Greg's truck bumper, then . . . well, I'd better slow down and wait for what happens next. I'm sure your mind is in the danger-twilight zone already. One step at a time, right?
