One Hundred Day

Last week was One Hundred Day at La's school. To celebrate the one hundredth day of the school year, the students were allowed to dress up as 100-year-olds. Here's a very grainy photo of what La's get-up looked like.



She was a 100-year-old with an affinity for Harry Potter. Her cane was actually Hermione Granger's wand. Crafty!

Dressing like a 100 year old might have rubbed off on her. She may have, in fact, gained a little bit of wisdom. Because the other night, she made quite the profound observation. She said, "Mom, you know what? A band-aid can only fix a boo-boo ... Like, if you put a band-aid on a hole in your dress? It's not going to fix it." (thoughtful pause) ... "And if you put one on a crack in the floor? Well, it's not going to fix that either."

I couldn't have said it better myself.
