Recently I have noticed my daughter recording me. I assumed it had to do with the new SnapChat filters. Being the silly person that I am, I play into whatever recording she is doing. This whole time, I thought these episodes were for her entertainment.
Yesterday, she was recording me and asking for a response. I of course responded with my usual ridiculousness and facial expressions. I then asked her what happens to all of these recordings. She told me that she shares these clips on her SnapChat story. Um…what? She explained that I am quite popular with her friends because of my ridiculous behavior. Good to know.
On the way to school I asked her more about these videos. She laughed and said the video she posted on my birthday got a great response. She told me that she shared a video I did last summer when we were in Texas and I was singing “Deep in the Heart of Texas” with some filter. It was ridiculous.
I asked her why my friend Tracie had not reported to me about these videos because she is my SnapChat monitor. She told me that she blocks Tracie from those posts.
I am unsure where to go from here. I strongly believe that kids should know that it is O.K. to be silly and ridiculous. I am also aware that I may end up on Ellen…
If you end up on Ellen for this, then you better be thanking your daughter for the rest of her life! hahaha sounds like you have a good relationship with your daughter though!

Haha. That’s cute and it seems like a good natured type of fun she is having with her generation and the expense, or to the credit of, yours. I get the trepidation but it sounds like you guys have a pretty great relationship. Fun to read this one. Thanks!
