That makes total sense. Sadly, the people making the laws often don’t have that.

If I were the teacher on record, I would make a quick call to the parents and let them know what happened and get verbal permission to apply sunscreen borrowed from another student. If I couldn’t reach them, I would make a judgement call.

Not sure what the laws are there, but in CA, you are not allowed to apply sunscreen unless the parents apply it. The daycare would still be at fault (they should have made sure that the boys had an adequate supply before going to play at the water park.

I’m an old, so I missed out on the dolls, but as a history geek, I love them!

Not going to lie- as soon as I get a job teaching history, I’m investing in the dolls and books. I just want to have little props to put out for lessons. Really though, I’ve been needing an excuse to buy the dolls.

I only wear my wedding ring for work and special occasions. I get a nasty rash on my finger if I wear it too often. :-(

She is a fucking goddess!

Are we the same person?! I fall asleep to ID or Forensic Files (Law and Order on Mondays!) but at some point I wake up, turn the TV off and put on the Sleepy Time Mix.

I was in the chorus of Madama Butterfly and our Suzuki woke up on opening night with blurred vision. We had an understudy, but our Suzuki really embodied the role. The decision was made to put me in a servant’s kimono for the second act and have me serve as her “eyes.” This meant that I had to sprinkle the flowers and…

Yep! I want to wear it and pretend that I am a pretty, pretty princess.

Still one of my favorites.

I used to have an end of the year S’mores buffet for my youth group. The teens got super creative and we have tried just about every kind of S’mores possible. The Reese’s is hands down the best. A close second (for me anyway) is a dark chocolate S’more. Shit. Now I want S’mores.

I don’t want to brag, but Captain America was TOTALLY getting handsy with me tonight!

My aunt and uncle in early 1920s.

It was actually Justin Timberlake who convinced her to do it. He showed up at her dressing room with the leotard on. How could she say no?

I was going through a new numbers bulletin board set that I got, and this one has the number names in spanish as well as english. I totally counted them with the Sesame Street song: uno dos tres ... quatro cinco seis ... siete ocho nueve and one more makes dies!

Fellow old! Olds unite!

Why is he so perfect?!

We were kid friendly and made sure the invitations included the kids names (except for my cousin with 9 kids, that one just said “and family.”)

Excuse to post my favorite Paul Rudd thing ever! We’re warmed up like biscuits!
