actual email written to friends today...
So Ellie and I have been rocking the handmade, homemade birthday gifts this year. Starting with Ciara, every child is getting a tshirt in a bold color with a reverseout of their names and various appliques. It's very "Old Navy" and UBER cute. Involves painstakingly picking out letters, peeling and sticking, a true labor of love. I dont mind ruining the surprise for all of you when I say your kid IS getting one of these tshirts this year. Sorry! So Ellie's is cute, Ciara's is A-Mazing and i have Andrew's, Owens, Tommy's and Emily's in que. All prepurchased and ready to go.
So tonight we sit down and do Andrews and Tommy's. Red shirt? CHECK. Curlique type letters? Check check. Bottle of bleach? Yup. Full wash basin, yepper. Peel stick...PEEL stick, make dinner, babies cry, peel stick. and viola! They are ready to roll. Off I go to the basement, rubber gloves, utility sink, SPRAY bleach. And squirt. Squit, mist, spray... And peel again, careful not to drip bleach. Rinse after 1 minute, wait, wash alone, wait and gently pull OUT of the washbasin.
Imagine my surprise.
When the COOLEST rockin Red Shirt Ever was revealed in all it's glory.
Because as any fool knows, when you bleach a red shirt.....
Megan, April, ...I'm sorry.
And I know it's not pc but...
your kids getting the GAYEST pink shirt ever.
Looking forward to seeing it at the playground.
Love, Ellie's Mom.
