Biloxi Shrimp Trip

This was her second time going on this trip. The last time was about three years ago, and the kids seemed to like it more when they were younger. But we had a good time.

Life Lessons

From Mom:

Getting ready for school, Caitie and I had a long talk about life - I was discussing how much freedom she'll have when she is older.  I asked, when you are 24, and you want to take a trip to California, do you need my permission?  She said yes.  She was SO happily surprised to find out she doesn't need permission.  I told her my job then is to teach her well now, so she'll make good decisions later.  Like, if she goes to Paris, and runs out of money, and can't get home...  that would be bad.  She said, well, I could put out a sign and a pot, and collect money on the street.  I said - you *could* - but that's exactly NOT what I want for you and why I need to teach you lots of things, things about money, math, spelling, reading.  She said oh yes, spelling.  Because you don't want my sign on the street to have misspelled words!
