I fail!

I extremely disappointed my little kindergarteners today when I told them that I would not be dressing up as a Barbie Doll for Halloween. I thought one of the little girls was going to cry. I felt so bad! I wish I would have know that it was expected of me to be Barbie when I sold my perfect pink dress a few years ago. Dang! I really loved that dress too!!

I’m hoping that I can pass my fairy costume off as “Fairy Barbie” so they wont be so disappointed, but I have a feeling they are too smart for that. When I was a kid I had a “Barbie Fairy” and I thought it was the coolest thing ever!! You would dip the Barbie’s wigs in bubbles and then make her fly and bubbles would come out. Maybe I should bring a bubble blower… I’m thinking they won’t go for that either though :( What totally stinks is I went shopping for a costume with my little kindergarteners in mind. I tried really hard to get a cute costume that they would like. I had no idea they had an expectation for me. I failed! I’m officially a horrible teacher!

(With a stretch of the imagination I could be this no problem.)

I once modeled as a real life Barbie Doll making little girls dreams come true when they got to talk to me, “The real Barbie!” Now I’m just a big blonde disappointment! So sad!
