Me: Hello?
Friend: Hey, are you watching ABC World News with Diane Sawyer? They just showed a picture of Payton!
Me: Huh? Are you sure?
Friend: Yes ... I am sure! It was that picture of her when she was a baby ... she had on a white tank top and she was sticking her tongue out.
Me: Are you serious?! What were they talking about?
Friend: They were talking about the R word.
We continued to talk ... all the while I remained a skeptic. I mean really ... wouldn't I know if my daughter's picture was going to be shown on ABC World News with Diane Sawyer?
Ha ... apparently not!
I turned to facebook and asked if anyone had seen the segment.
I saw it and was screaming "That's Payton!!" ... I remember that pic!
I was doing the treadmill and was watching and SCREAMED at the top of my lungs to everyone upstairs that Payton was on TV. You go girlie!!!
Aww ... my baby was on the world news and I missed it! Thank God for the internet!
The ABC World News segment is a direct result of Obama's Chief of Staff referring to something as being "F'ing R____" ... thus the backlash. The View also discussed the use of the R word earlier that day.
Payton's picture was a clip from the ARC RESPECT PSA that was made back when Tropic Thunder came out. I also sort of forgot that the PSA is on every Tropic Thunder DVD ... pretty awesome.
To say we are proud is an understatement!
Changing lives ... one day at a time.
