Clocking In

Dear Laney,

After I wrote that post about our weekly trips to Home Depot and the unofficial part-time job you have there, my good friend (and mom mentor) Amy sent you the best gift ever: your own orange apron.

We made our weekly pilgrimage to Home Depot today, and brought the apron along with us. Since Dad had lots of shopping to do, we had a lot of time to kill. We hit every single aisle and greeted just about every shopper. As they say in Hollywood, hilarity ensued.

Just about everyone we saw had something funny to say to you - your fellow employees reminded you to clock in and out, and shoppers asked you where to find the hammers and caulk.

The picture on the top right above is what happened when you decided to take a load off and enjoy a prune in the middle of the small appliance section. A very nice employee from the paint section walked by and reminded you where to find the break room.

Thanks again to Amy for helping to make you the hit of Home Depot.

Love,

Mom
