It should also be noted that the girl hates her school uniforms. HATES.
Example from tonight...
Madison: "Mom! Mom! Tomorrow is Cabbage Day at school!"
Me: "It's what now? What day?"
Madison: "Cabbage Day!"
Me: "What does that mean?" OH MY GOD! That teacher is such a horrible communicator. Now I'm going to have to stop at the store later tonight and get cabbage or whatever the hell this requires.
Madison: "Cabbage Day. Teacher sent a note".
Me: "Get the note." Ugh. More crap to do the week before Christmas. With no notice. Son of BITCH! I'll be making a phone call this time. I am so sick of this last minute school stuff!
...and then the note...
Me: "Um, Madi, this says: Casual Day. Thursday is Casual Day."
Madison: "Oh, yeah. Casual Day".
If she would have said, 'Never mind', I would have had a heart attack.
And, of course a winning Cabbage Day outfit!
