that would be ME!
Hello people of the blog world!!! Let me introduce myself, i am magan's oldest, most amazing, wonderful, and perfect daughter in every way. The names madeline. I like to spend my free time texting, listening to screamo music on my ipod, and going on my myspace. It sure is an exciting life... im in 7th grade and im 12 years old. So im trying to think of something to type on this blog thing of my mother's, and i think im gonna tell u the good things and bad things about my mom. (everyone has the right to be informed!!!)
BAD
1. my mom is having a sudden obssesion with cleanness( is that a word?). Everyday after weve gotten all ready for school and were about to relax for a bit, she makes us CLEAN! Now i think u have to agree that that is INSANE! And to believe it or not she started this obsession AFTER she took our house off the market, when we DONT have to keep it relativley clean for showings!!!
2. She is a crazed bargain shopper! Everything has to be on sale or a good price to buy it! I mean would it kill her to buy me a pair of $50 jeans every once in a while!
3. Now heres a pretty basic one. She dosent understand me at all! And she even claims to have once been in junior high!!! She sits on a throne of LIES!!!!
4. My mom is a strong believer in the "if your bad, i take your phone away" philosophy! I mean, what if, she had taken my phone away and i had gone on a walk around the neighborhood and all of a sudden a blood thirsty murderer had shot me!! As i lay withering on the ground, DYING, i wouldnt be able to call and ambulance to get some basic medical treatment!!! SHE IS RISKING MY LIFE FOR DISCIPLINE!!! Sheesh!
5. SHE REFUSES TO GET $700 JAPENEASE PERMANENT STRAIGHTENING FOR MY HAIR!!!!!! 'Nuff said.
GOOD
1. She has a FABULOUS taste in books! We are both MAJOR twilight fans! But one thing she will never top, is my love for Edward Cullen. -sigh- Maybe thats what happens when u get married, u stop loving fictional book characters...
2. My mom's pretty chill about my grades and education. She not one of those "send an email cussing out the teacher cause they gave they're precious child an F on a worksheet" type of mom or the classic "in your child's free time, give them extra work so they can keep on on they're grades" type of mom. I could go on.
3.Its also good that she isnt like a crack head or a child molestor or like beats me for accidently bumping in to her...
4. Shes also a good cook.(for the most part at least, PLEASE NO MORE HOME MADE SPRING ROLLS!!!!) Its not like our everyday meal is takeout or frozen dinners. She actually COOKS! Thats definently a shocker these days! Her homemade pizza is super de duper good!
5. And last but not least, shes just a loving and wonderful mother in every way! (Yes, i knew i needed to add a sappy one on the list...)

Madeline - Well thanks for taking the time to ensure our rights are respected and that we're informed about your mom. A few comments:
1) Curious behavior, the cleanliness thing. Especially, like you said, after the house is off the market. Maybe she just got in the habit and can't break it. Don't worry until she starts making you clean off the top of the refrigerator.
2) No, it wouldn't kill her to buy you a pair of $50. jeans. Keep asking, cry if you have to! If that doesn't work, (and it probably won't - I tried the same method back in the day), save up.
3) The "throne of lies" made me laugh out loud. Your flair for drama makes us soul sisters. She really was in junior high, as we all were, but we really try to block that out.
4) Right there with ya, sister! No matter HOW much I try to pull your mom into my various dramatic scenarios involving blood-thirsty murderers and so forth - she's just too darn REALITY-BASED! If she tries to take away your phone again, call me! I will have a talk with her!!!
5) I don't think the Japanese really know how to straighten hair anyway... so don't freak out too much about that one. Plus, I saw your photos from the beach - your non-straight hair is gorgeous.
Good stuff-
1) She does have good taste in books. I never would have met Edward if not for her. But I don't know that I agree that you stop loving fictional characters when you get married. You just start to like different things about them. Personally, I'm drawn to the way Edward drives his Volvo. Hm. What does that say about me?
2-5) You're a lucky daughter. And I'm a lucky friend. (And if we keep writing this stuff, I'm fairly sure you can get those fifty-dollar jeans and maybe she'll send me a nice new pair of Rocket Dogs...)
You guys crack me up! I have an idea...why don't you start a blog together that is solely a place for the two of you to discuss my strengths and weaknesses, with a focus on the strengths of course!
