Let me establish firstly that dd is a gorgeous child. I know that won't cut any ice as I'm her mother but she is truly gorgeous, everyone comments on her and she isn't odd looking at all
So today I take her shopping in a long sleeve blue vest, denim pinafore with pink flowers on, pink ankle socks and pink and white sandals. So, bloke in Tesco says 'oh he's cute. Why is he wearing pink socks?' 'Because he's a girl,' says I. So he calls his colleague over and asks her if dd is a girl or boy (??). 'She's a girl,' I assure them both. So this witch looks down at dd and says 'never mind dear, you'll grow into your features.'
Now WTF???
a) how bloody rude
b) dd is 16 months and looks like a girl not a wrinkled up little newborn that could be either
c) how bloody rude again
d) what have her features got to do with anything?
I suspect I'm being a little pfb but really. Some people! My mother thinks that writing to the MD to complain about his staff is a little OTT...
