We are constantly joking around with our 12 year old daughter. A year ago, it was impossible to joke around with her - she would immediately get upset with us.

So, last night she comes downstairs, super excited & shows me her braces. I asked her: "what am I looking at?". She gleefully responds with: "my teeth, they're getting straighter!!!"

I laughing said: "oh honey, you'll finally be pretty"

She quipped back: "I know, I'm sorry I won't look like you"

Touché homegirl 😂😂

(Before you judge, our daughter is beautiful and knows that I was completely joking 😂😂. I had to share because of her ridiculously quick response 😂😂).
