Lydia was sent home with an assignment a few weeks back to write about a famous African American. We forgot to pick our own person, so she was assigned Ray Charles. Borrowing books from the library, we slowly put together a speech and Trung worked hard on the Grammy award prop. Lydia memorized the speech quickly and probably had the longest one of her class of 30.

After school, we scootered to the library with Isabelle to make paper airplanes. I never know if the kids will like the activity, but was relieved when they had a blast and couldn't stop making planes. We were the last ones there, even the librarian directing the activity left before us!

After throwing together a simple dinner for the girls, I walked over to Dermalogica for its birthday celebration. Diane and Lisa joined me for free food, eyebrow wax, and hair styling.
All done up just to go home and go to bed.
