Home of the Thundering Herd!

Yesterday Kaila had to go to the high school & get her schedule, locker, id card & p.e. clothes. I went with her & WOW, things haven't changed too much since I went to school there! As I was standing with Kaila in a line that never ended, I could tell it was not "cool" for Kaila to be standing with her mom. So she went & said hello to friends while I held our place in line. It gave me a moment to glance around at the other students & parents. As I was looking around I found myself comparing me to other parents, what an eye opener that was! When Kaila came back I felt pretty confident that she shouldn't be too embarrassed by her mom & told her about my little survey. She half rolled her eyes at me when I started to explain myself, then I just blurted out to her, "Look at that mom over there in the blue velor sweatsuit, you got to admit I'm better than that!!!" She laughed ... the joys of having a kid in high school!!
