Helpful Advice

INT BEDROOM

RD Mama stands amidst shoes, empty hangers and a pile of clothes modelling one dress while holding up another. Dear Husband sits nearby, feigning interest in this decision making process.

RD Mama: This flowered dress is o.k, but I know I'll see pictures afterwards and be unhappy about my fat upper arms.

Dear Husband: Soothing, non-committal comment.

RD Mama: And really like this one but the pattern is pretty wild and I think looking back at Matilda's 1st birthday photos in 20 years I'll be horrified by it.

Dear Husband: Go with the flowered one, in twenty years your arms will be fatter and then you'll be like "Wow, look how thin my arms were there"
