"my mama whooped me with a rhinestone belt..."

did that just happen?

a mother and son came in to tour and talk about enrollment.  the son announced that it smelled bad and hid his head under her shirt.  i commented that what he was smelling was lunch and that we were having sweet potatoes.  he began to whine from under his mother's shirt.  she hastily apologized and told him that they were leaving.  they were out the door before he took his head out from under her shirt and i could hear her comforting him as they left.

Pretty soon people get tired of supporting you so you either go to work or you starve.

first day of school

i have been dreading this year...
three girls...
three different schools

we are spread out all over the city now...but they are kinda cute :)

 elise had to go first.  she is very proud of the outfit she picked out herself :)

 lilli was not feeling so hot...little warm and sniffly.  but it's the first day of school and she didn't want to miss it!

 high school!

kaely's day got even better...

her origami owl new designer kit was waiting for her on the front porch :)

and lilli was sent home with a fever of 102 on the first day of school.  but at least she tried!

um

"the good thing about us jews..."
-c.g.


so...yeah

labels are important

so sad to say that we had to help a woman out yesterday.  she was trying to leave through the utility closet.  this morning i added a label to prevent further confusion.  we tested the new system to make sure it would work...

reminds of this fun time with labels...
