And also seeing that, like, frankly, you know, I was asleep in my bed and I hear one night Sophia in front of the mirror completely by herself go, this fake tan is developing wonderfully. Wakes me up so loud. Wakes me up. She's saying it over and over to herself. Crazy person. And I open my door and I see her butt naked in front of the mirror like this just by herself. No boys are over there.
