Hat Trick

Travis's school is having a Thanksgiving "show" on Thursday evening. His teachers sent home a form where they confirm whether we (and he) will be in attendance on Thursday, so they can plan the presentation.

So, I filled out the form, and set it on the table to be placed in Travis's "red folder" to bring to school tomorrow. And then, I went about the evening routine including dinner, laundry, etc.

And then..... Sophie happened.

At some point, unbeknownst to me or anyone else in charge around here, she grabbed the paper, and the pen, off the table. And had her way with it.

When I found it, I debated about what to do. Should I throw it away and just hand write a note to the teacher to tell her we'll be there? Its not like I have a blank copy of the form I can fill out. Is it that big of a deal?

So, finally, I decided to write a teeny note of explanation on the bottom of the form.

"Sorry....Sophie got a hold of this after I filled it out...."

I worded it that way because I didn't want them to think that Sophie had applied her handiwork to the form first and then I filled it out. For some reason I felt like that made a difference.

I'm not sure if the note makes it more, or less lame. Oh well.

In other news, Ben and I had purchased a handful of winter hats from the dollar store. I keep them in a bucket near their 'shoe bench'. There is this one hat that Sophie insists on wearing anytime she lays her eye on it, whether we are going outside, or staying in, whether its cold out or warm and sunny, whether it is bedtime or midday. It matters not. If she sees the hat, she's wearing it.

What a cute little stinker.
