For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for September 02, 2022

who’s the pretty lady? April is

My older sister had a dress very similar to the one April is wearing. I used to love playing dress up in it!

I guess it is safe to say that April is not potty trained yet.

I’m waiting for when she tries on her mother’s makeup.

Is that the Patterson’s new master bedroom?

It sure is big (cf. the last panel)!!

cute

Fun Mommy

Today’s toon back in 1993

love it. ;)

More “April acting like a toddler”….

How does that dress fit so well? But she is stylish.

Every day is that for me! No, i´m not married, why do you ask?

Very avant-garde. She is definitely kitting up for the west end.

Cute. Like kids should be able to be : )

Once my daughter was pointing at what she wanted, I started offering clothing choices (that I pre-approved, of course) for her selection. She loved it and I think it helped stave off the terrible twos. She wasn’t a terrible two year old, but she certainly was my three-nager, believing she knew everything and I knew nothing. LOL

Good to see this family has no issues with ‘gender identity’…

Do little girls STILL plays “dress-up”?It would seem to me to be anoutdated custom.

Also—Panel 2—the clothes chest “censoring” April’s belly button

Now she just needs the candy cigarettes (wonder if they still make those)

Life of raising children, always fun, exciting, exhilarating, as well as trying, depressing, and confusing at times, but once they are grown and gone the memories still remain.

She looks adult. Now, in tandem with yesterday’s strip, we could see this:

Phone rings

April: “You have reached the private wire of Elizabeth Patterson Senior. Miss April Patterson, executive secretary, speaking!”

are these all repeats or redraws? (april is cute btw)

LOVE her style! Too bad it’s not her size.

This is absolutely adorable!!!❤️
