We were all home on Monday for the Presidents Day holiday. This worked out well, as we discovered that Mariel had lice and spent much of the evening trying to clean/ heat/ freeze everything possible to kill our new louse friends. The kids were fully treated and safe to return to school this morning. Far from being embarrassed about her situation, Mariel walked to school with a friend discussing what life would be like if the world was overrun with lice. I fully expected her to spend the day discussing it with her classmates. I was not prepared for Mariel to come home with this lovely self-confidence building worksheet on "What makes you different."
