My daughter is convinced she found the worst thing that ever happened to her. It was so bad, in her mind, she spent weeks trying to get out of it. She even asked me to write her a note excusing her from this activity. Link in the comments.

It has finally happened. I forgot picture day. And to make matters worse, my daughter is convinced I should learn a lesson from this. So here I am holding back my tears and wondering who have I become? But it hit me today. That doesn't define me. That's only how I feel. But I am so much more than a forgotten picture day.
