Never thought I'd do it

This week I did something I never imagined I'd do. I took my kids to the store with Abe only in a t-shirt and underpants. I originally was just dropping Jimmy off at work but then realized I had all my letters ready to mail for YW, so I decided to stop at the grocery store which has a post office. Abe didn't have shoes on and had just hurried out to the car. The funny thing about that pair of underpants though is that they are boxer briefs and they almost go down to his knees (this picture was before they were washed and they are slightly shorter). Anyhooo... and Hannah was wearing a lavendar and green princess dress-up costume with sparkle glitter shoes with raggedy hair. I'm sure we were quite a site at the store. And after dropping off the letters, I decided to buy some treats and our only purchase was ding-dongs and twinkies. I don't think I've purchased those in years and years. What a silly trip to the grocery store!

Love your description of the grocery store trip! And love your frankness with us all! I love that you're letting the kids be themselves. And what does it really matter in the long run, right? Cute story Heather!
