You're right. I'm not paying full-time tuition for DD's preschool so she can spend more time with me at home. I shouldn't be so stingy over supplies. I should find a bulk source for double-sided tape.

i threw in the towel the day that the made-entirely-of-scotch-tape greenhouse, complete with soil and paper flowers, appeared on DD5's windowsill. it was a TRIUMPH of engineering and patience... and i didn't have the heart to tell her it blew her budget. that's when i thought of the school/$ thing: at the time, it was a total rationalization, but i think it's been totally worth it. so many amazing creations!

Every Sunday it brooded and lay on the floor. Inconveniently close to the drawing-room door.
