Obviously I had the wrong thing in mind when my son informed me that he would lovvvvvvvve for me to come to school for A Day at the Pond. When I arrived, I discovered that we would be fishing (pond....fishing....duh). Well, the only problem with this is that I was completely overdressed (was headed to work afterwards). I mean high heel shoes dressed up. Nevertheless, I'm a mama and a mama has to do what a mama has to do! I fished and baited my hook with a worm dressed up.
We go through great lengths to ensure that our kids are happy. The time we had was great and memorable. Being a parent is a tough job, but we have to embrace each moment. I was so self-conscious initially because I thought I looked ridiculous. That all changed when my son, who is very vocal, acted as if I was wearing tennis shoes and a jogging suit! He was just happy I was there. We sometimes focus on the wrong thing when all we have to do is enjoy life no matter what others think!
