Eyes

I swore I would never lie to you.

Jules

I swore that I would always tell you the truth, no matter how hard it would be. I swore to always explain even the most difficult to you, the best way possible. But, as time wore on, I began hearing those words "because I said so. Because I'm your mother. I know because I have eyes in the back of my head." The lazy words of an exhausted mother.

So what was I to expect when they began to come back at me?

Today, I was sitting at the computer, my back to the girls. Jules says, "mommy, read your shirt to me." I said, "I can't right now, I don't want to take it off to see the back."

Jules: "What? Can the eyes in the back not look down?"
