Dearth

Looks scary, but still busting out her "head to the side and smile" pose...

 

Little P is learning how to lie. Some recent conversations:

After finding a lock of hair in the hall:

H: Agh! Did you cut your hair?

P: No, Wil did.

H: Wil cut his hair?! OMG - why didn't you tell one of us and why hasn't his mom called me?

Later that day and another BIGGER lock of hair found:

H: DID YOU CUT YOUR HAIR? Wil has a crewcut - this isn't Wil's hair!

P: Wil cut my hair.

H: He cut your hair??!!! Why didn't you tell me?!

P: I cut my hair.

After P pulled a was of bills out of her purse:

H: Where did you get that money?

P: Pop Pop gave it to me. I'll share some with Nick.

N: Woo hoo! She just gave me $10!

Later after opening up my wallet to find it empty:

H: Peri, did you steal my money?

P: Pop Pop took it from your wallet and gave it to me.

H: Pop Pop hasn't been here for three weeks. Did you take my money.

P: I needed some money.

Lesson learned - Peri will throw anyone under the bus to get out of a lie.
