...that makes me completely and utterly uncomfortable and awkward feeling. I mean seriously, I graduated a LONG time ago. But whenever I step through the door of K's school, I'm instantly self-conscious and weirded out. :) Don't get me wrong, I love that she wants me there, but my inner nerd cringes.
The book fair has made it's appearance in the library this week. I gave her the option of just taking money and buying herself a book but she chose to take me (and my debit card) along this morning. I'm going to tell myself that she just wanted to spend some quality book-browsing time with me and that it had nothing to do with her being smart enough to realize that she is likely to beg her way into a better haul if she has me there to beg than if I just send her a set amount of cash. :) Where did my princess-loving wookie go, and who is this Twilight-browsing (I'm not cool enough to let her read them yet) tween? *Sigh* So after she made her selection, she deposited me in the line to pay, kissed me good-bye and asked me to pay and take it home so that she could go chat with her friends before school. I stood in line with a bunch of middle school kids and paid for her book and walked out to the car quite contentedly, because she still thinks I'm cool enough to kiss in front of her friends. How the heck did I get such a cool, self-confident kid? Life is good.
