On return from our little trip to New Paltz, mama read her email and was reminded of a costume party/contest at my school for the following day! I've been telling them that I wanted to be a firetruck, or lemon. Well, it was 10pm, they put me in bed, unpacked everything while thinking of what to do about the costume. They frantically looked into mama's fabric bins to see what they could make. Many things apparently crossed their minds, but they knew I really wanted to be a firetruck...or lemon. So they stayed up till 3am to make a firetruck. The following morning I was excited when I saw the firetruck, a little apprehensive, then reminded them that I wanted to be a lemon. I wore it briefly at home but refused to wear it at school. But later I decided to wear it during Open Mic. This made mama and papa happy.
