A Family And Vrksasana (Thrice)













What do all three of these families have in common (besides their poor decision-making skills related to car accessory purchases)?  They show us that there is an apparent correlation between nondescript working dads, vrksasana and cheerleading.

Not much to say about the dads in all three of these families besides that they are identical and boring. The obligatory my-wife-bought-these-stupid-stickers smile, the tie, the briefcase...blah.  

But then we have the female in each family who loves yoga. As someone who does not do yoga, I felt like I needed to be thorough and do a little research on that particular position since all three women are doing the same thing. And every yoga website tells me that it is called vrksasana (uh, what?) or tree pose. So I think we can all agree that the third family did a serious disservice to yoga experts everywhere by putting Yoga Girl upside down.  That is clearly not an accurate portrayal of vrksasana. Duh.


And each family's trio is completed by a cheerleader daughter who has pigtails and pom-poms and is REALLYREALLYEXCITED.  The kind of little girl who never runs out of energy and bounces around on the back seat of a minivan talking for hours without taking a breath.  You know, the kind of little girl who gives me nightmares about parenthood.


So, does it follow that where there is a nondescript working dad, there is a woman who loves yoga, and where there is vrksasana there are little cheerleaders?  I guess we will never know for sure, but in Ohio, that would seem to be the case.

  1. And apparently they are all no limited to family stickers. How can family 2 even see out the back with all the crap on their car?
