Snowman vs. Snowman

Not long ago, I posted a picture of my son's "Snowman from Hell," a three-year-old preschool art project gone Halloween-style (click here to read about it). Recently, my daughter brought her version of the same project home from school. As a reminder, here's The Boy's snowman:

And now, here is The Girl's snowman:

Note the pleasantly shaped eyes, round head, and knowing smile. This snowman just made cookies for you and maybe picked up the ingredients to your favorite meal to make for dinner. She does not look like she's about to commit a felony.

I've decided that these two snowmen look like potential before and after photos. Here are some possibilities:

Before coffee

After coffee

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nazis before opening the ark

Nazis after opening the ark*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Me up late at night

Me getting up early in the morning

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Me dropping me kids off at their Sunday School classes***

Me trying to pay attention to the sermon

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harvey Dent pre-accident

Harvey Dent post-accident**

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cleaning up normal stuff

Cleaning up vomit (I have a lot of experience with this)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My son asking for something for the 1,725th time

("Maybe this time she'll say yes!")

My son when I say no again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Me in a bad mood

Me in a good mood

I need more sleep, or new make-up, or something.

***The second "me" was a typo but I decided to leave it in because pirate-speak makes it even more funny. Do your best pirate impression... you'll see!
