First Day

She doesn't look like she's up to any mischief does she? If you only knew the kind of trouble I was as a kid you would know how funny this picture of Cheyenne waiting for the bus on her first day of school really is. She's headed to my old elementary school, a den of nepotism where the teachers have either been there for 300 years, were students themselves or are married to former students or teachers. Cheyenne's teacher (who seems like a very nice person) is the wife of a former classmate of mine. Like all small towns once you have a reputation in St Anthony it's hard to outlive.

We've been joking all summer, well, half joking, that the teachers of St Anthony are going to wet themselves when they see that I've spawned. Lucky for them this little monkey is much better behaved than her mother. I mean, how could you not like a kid who's all mermaids and rainbows and unicorns and who's hobby is sorting laundry?
