Oh. . .My. . .Gnome

omgosh! ok so a friend of the family (joyanne) brought Mckayla (her friend Heather's baby) over for a few days. she's so adorable! anyway, we (joy, maggie, mckayla and me) were at Target. Joy and Maggie were looking in the clothes department and Mckayla and i were looking at shoes for her, and this lady was in the same isle next to us looking at shoes. Then Mckayla grabbed at some shoes and i told her not to, she grabbed again and i told her more firmly no and she grabbed at them one more time and by then i was really cranky so i just grabbed her hand to told her to keep it in the cart. by this time we had attracted the lady's attention. she was stairing at us in fasination with just a little bit of discust. Mckayla pouting in the cart b/c she couldn't try on the shoes was now trying to see if she could sway me into trying on a pair of red sparklie shoes (like the ones in the Wizard of Oz). with this the lady turns to me and asks " is this little cherrub yours?" i was so shocked i stood scilent for like 4 seconds. then i laughed and answered, "No, she's my niece." and the lady breathed what seemed to be a sigh of relief. she congradulated me on not caving into Mckayla's wineing and i thanked her then she moved out of the isle and away from the shoe department. and all i could think was 'boy was that aquard.' lol.

so thats the tail i have to tell to you!

luv to all,
jal
