Speaking of Important Work
My nine-year-old is launching her own clothing design business. (Click on the pictures for a larger version to pop up.)









I admit, this whole collection made me laugh until I cried but I was also reminded that I love her so much, I think my heart could just burst with it. She's still so innocent of the world, you know, and yet so... I don't know what. So confident that she has something the world wants. I just... well, I get a little weepy.
And then my six (almost seven) year old had to make a community building to be part of the city that the first grade is putting together. Kids made buildings like these:
This is the bank (tall building) and the Doctor's Office.

This is the Fishing Shack, because every landlocked Texas city has one of those. (No, seriously.)

Movie Theater

Shoe Store

Bank
And MY daughter's contribution:
which she placed strategically right by the hospital.

LOL!!!
Love these!
Oh! Where was I? Yeah - love the Mickey D's by the hospital, too!
Here it is!
I second MadMad - I'll take the gown, but only if accessorized with the ball and the prince. Don't tell my husband.
Imagine that child in 20 years. Whoa.
Grr...
Re: the town building, HA!! I freakin' love it.
My hospital, by the way (the big university one, not State Hospital) has a Wendy's in it. Which, they're taking out, and putting a McDonald's in its place. Right inside the hospital!!
The first time they call a code blue to the McDonald's, I'm going to laugh so hard I may wet myself.
Oh, and svmkuqmh. In honor of the word verification being back on.
(by the way, my word verification is basically a version of ornery...)
