If you were to ask my youngest daughter Megan if she is a drama queen, she will quickly say "Yes!" It seems everyone, including her, recognizes this attribute in her. At the end of her 4th grade year, the class voted for everyone who was "most likely to...." It probably will not surprise anyone who knows her to learn that Megan earned the "Most likely to be an actress" award!
That girls can milk any situation for the utmost drop of sympathy or laughter available. I am in awe of her skills. For example, last week we went to the dentist for routine cleanings. The dentist found Megan's first two cavities. When she heard that she had two cavities, Megan burst into tears. She was so dramatic that the dentist suggested we come back on a day when Megan wasn't so emotional. I had to break it to him that this was as good as it got. He filled the cavities the same day.
However, Megan still had to be high drama. She screamed when her mouth started going numb....and bit the inside of her cheek. Before the fillings were completed, her cheek had swollen to about 4x the normal size. The swelling lasted nearly three days, but Megan garnered every ounce of sympathy she could from each new audience. It was amazing to watch.
The swelling subsided but left a pretty colorful mark on her cheek. Megan told me "it looks like somebody jumped me." NATURALLY, she continues to get plenty of sympathy from everyone who hates going to the dentist.
*** Megan has requested that the picture of her bruise be removed.
