My Oldest, age 13: “I’m so glad you’re finally here to pick me up. It’s been like two weeks and I totally left my favorite bra and sweater at your house. Also, I mean… I love you very much. But mainly this is about the bra and sweater.”

My Oldest, age 13: “Why do they call it Black Friday.”
Me: “Because it’s a dark, dark day in our calendar.”
Oldest: “I think you just made that up.”
Me: “Doesn’t mean it’s not true.”
You couldn’t pay me
Phone call six days prior to tell My Oldest to be sure to bring her swimsuit on our trip so she can swim in the hotel: Check.
Email four days prior to remind her: Check.
Multiple text message reminders: Check.
Shopping for a swimsuit on Black Friday… In Chicago… In the bleeping WINTER when no one stocks swimsuits… PRICELESS.
