To Julia, To Help Her Smile

Julia is having a bad week (month) as we all do when we are stressed out with wedding things. Her dress had a major "issue" and thought she could use a funny story. To preface you must know that our family (Beesley family) calls gas from a body "pop-er" (Mom hated "fart") and Ella just got the movie "Barbie, Princess and the Pauper" today at Walmart, let the hilarity ensue:

Ethan giggling "Mom, tomorrow can I watch Princess and the Pauper?"
Me: "Why are you giggling?" (like I don't know!)
Ethan giggling: "Mom, what did the Pauper look like?"
Me, trying to ignore his gigles and make this a civilized conversation: "It looked like the other one but with brown hair."
Ethan: Holding his sides laughing so hard he can't talk
Me, chagrined: "You're thinking of a cloud of gas with brown hair, aren't you?"
Ethan, gasping for breath: "Yes!!!"
Eric: "If it has lots of hair is it a Hairy Pauper? (play on Harry Potter)."
Me: Rolling eyes and laughing so hard I can't respond.
