Dress Shopping

Dress Shopping, originally uploaded by S. Zachko.

As per groom's wishes, all three girls should dress the same in the wedding. We only had 30 minutes left before the store is closed. We have to pick up the dresses that have proper sizes and are acceptable for girls and girls' moms. The only way that I can get my girls to agree with the dresses we picked is to give them a free choices for them to keep. We spent 15 minutes to pickup dresses and 15 minutes in the fitting room for trying the dresses up, changing the dresses size, take pictures and paid the bills. The sales ladies was amazed how fast we've done..

Teachers

While growing up, I thought teachers are mentors, lighthouses and parents. Looking at my girls' teachers, I really appreciate their efforts, and dedication. I really appreciate they pulling their hearts for my love ones. Teachers are my friends, really good friends. Teachers bring the hopes and futures for my little ones and I know my kids will be in the better places with help from such good friends....

School Student Counsel started Crazy Hats Day this year. Kids have to designed their own hats and wore them at the school for the competition.
There was a prize for the first two winners. My girls were very excited. Their had draw their own design on the paper and made the hats. At the end, the little one was too embarrassed to wear the hat. The big one was inspired by the Mad Hatter from the Alice of the Wonderland and decided the hot dog hat. All the kids at school had lots of fun at April Fool Day for sure..

In school, kids do not only gain academic knowledge but also make friends. If they are lucky enough, then they will find their life time best friends. Being out of school for so many years, I still remember every parts of the school life while all the professional years do not make any marks except for those wrinkles and white hairs.
