Yesterday was Famous American Day at Molly's school. All the first graders pick a famous American to study (past or present) and then dress up and go on a school wide parade. My water baby picked Bethany Hamilton. We made a surf board and dressed her in a wetsuit and explained it was ok that she had 2 arms because she isn't really Bethany Hamilton. But, Molly had other plans...so after I left her classroom and joined the paparazzi (aka parents) lining the sidewalk waiting for the parade to begin, Molly had her teacher unzip her wetsuit and tuck her arm inside...
So as Ronald Reagan, Dolly Madison, and Martin Luther King Jr. passed I see Molly Bringing up the rear with a missing limb! I gasped, laughed and explained to the small terrified child beside me that Molly does infact still have both arms.
Happy Thursday...
Bye,bye Birdie,
