We had fun getting Kylie ready for Homecoming today. We tried hot curlers, bobby pins, curling irons, lots and lots of hairspray, and a few tears to get her hair to curl a bit. I think she looked great. She wasn't so sure.
The dress was too much fun to find. We shopped and shopped. Kylie tried on quite a few and she finally picked this one for a whopping $20! That gave us change for the fancy shoes and bling. The bracelet is Austrian crystal she bought in Austria.
I was excited Jory was home for this date. Today was opening day for hunting, so he pulled out his gun to clean it. Michael was a good sport:)
I think he was more worried about being poked by the pin Kylie was attacking him with.
Cody asked Kylie if she was going to get kissed. The answer better be "NO"!!!#@$#$%#$!#$%#^@$#%
Her shoes are four inch heals and he's still so much taller than her!
On a sadder note, my baby went to his first day of pre-school. He was so excited! He learned the letter l for lizard. His teacher said he's very smart. I cried a bit the night before, but when I dropped him off, he was so excited, I could only smile:)
And what did I do while he was at school? I interviewed for a job working at the high school with the seniors on their senior projects and enterprise, a week long business simulation. I got the job and started the next day. It was hard to go back to work after 15 years, but I really felt like it was time. The neat thing about it was I asked my friend to be a reference for me, and she said, "come work for me." That's what I'm doing. She said she'd been looking since August for someone to hire, but couldn't fill the position. Then I called her and she felt like I was that person. I love working with her and the students. It's really a great fit for me. The only problem is not being with Cody all day, and I have to get up and be ready for the day. But he is happy playing with friends and going to school. I also don't have to work when my kids don't have school, and I'm home shortly after they get home. Heavenly Father really looks out for our needs if we trust in him.
