A Juvenile Delinguent?!

Well, it's official, Annah has had her first run-in as a juvenile delinquent. There is a first time for everything, and today was the first time Annah got sent home from school. Why you ask? Did she have an uncontrollable meltdown and only Mommy could calm her down? Did she say a bad word? Did she hit another child? Did she bite another child? No, no, no, nothing like that...she (drumroll, please) wore the wrong brand of shoes! Can you imagine?! As it turns out, the brand Crocs is banned from her school. I knew she could not wear the crocs with the holes in them or flip-flops (which I don't totally agree with, but I get), but these were closed-toe, closed-back mary jane crocs. Do you see a problem? Me either! The school feels as if the tread on the bottom of crocs is "unsuitable" for school. OK, for real?! That is as ridiculous as saying the kids can't wear Hush Puppies because the laces are too long or they can't wear Stride Rite because the Velcro won't stay fastened (not that I know that to be true about either of these brands)! It is just plain silly!

On a completely different note, Annah said something so cute today...Will came to watch her riding lesson and on the way home she asked if there was someone to do Daddy's job at Honda when he wasn't there. She asked, "When Daddy's not at Honda, is there someone to say 'You go do this! You go do that!' Because that's Daddy's job!"
