Picture day

I really need to watch what I say...
Today was picture day at school and because it's 97 degrees outside I figured the boys would wear polo shirts for their pictures. Great, that's easy. Except Kyle really wanted to wear a long sleeve button up shirt. It looked great on him, but I was worried he would be too hot at recess or on the long bus ride home. The fact that it has buttons meant he couldn't easily take it off by himself if he got hot. I pictured him roasting in it all day and I tried to convince him to wear the polo shirt, but he insisted. In a desperate last attempt to change his mind I said, "You're going to get heat stroke if you wear that shirt in 100 degree weather".

He wore it anyway and the first thing he said to me today after school was, "Mom I wore this shirt all day and I didn't get that thing you told me about". Oh yes, heatstroke. That's what I said, didn't I.

Have I ever told you how much I love that song "If you want me to" by Ginny Owens? I listen to it all the time! Thanks for sharing. Hope you are all doing well. Miss you guys! p.s. If you will be in Minnesota late October, Lily and I are getting baptized on October 24th :) I'm so excited/nervous.
