My 4 year old son asked me why I was putting on makeup and I said "To make me look pretty." He replied "I don't think it's working."

It comes after the cookbook author's husband John Legend admitted he hopes their daughter Luna will take after her mum when it comes to her sense of humour.
He told People:
“I hope she does [share her sense of humour].
“Chrissy’s [sense of humour] is definitely more keen than mine is.
“[Luna] likes to laugh and she likes to make us laugh.
“Either way, we just want her to be intelligent and a good reader and loving and kind and all those good things.
"If she’s funny and talented, that would be awesome.”
