or are you just happy to see me? I couldn’t resist! Today Kate came home from school in tears. She has been looking forward to her first grade bug concert for months. She has two speaking parts (the aforementioned Boll Weevil and Bug #12) and she’s been practicing away. Today was the dress rehearsal and she got to try on her costume for the first time. Let’s just say it didn’t go well. As you can imagine she got teased mercilessly by the boys. And not about what you would expect! They were teasing her about her ‘trunk’ and how it got in the way when she was trying to talk into the microphone. Oh. It took all of my supreme Super Mommy skills to keep a straight face when we were working on the modifications. Whomever designed this concert in the first place sure had a good sense of humor (or no sense of imagination).
So I pulled out my scalpel, I mean sewing kit and did a bit of surgery to tack the offending member out of the way. As you can see from the shot below both Kate and the Boll Weevil are much happier after the procedure. (Who needs a little blue pill?) Awww…there’s my cute little Boll Weevil!
