Truth Be Told...

Yesterday I was surprised at the note that was sent home with my kids... The note was announcing that due to popular demand our school is considering requiring school uniforms next school year. More surprising than that was what I expected to be my reaction was not my reaction at all. My entire life I have thought that a school uniform would make things a lot easier and the "playing field" level for students. I suddenly found myself dreading the thought. After long hours of thinking about why I am suddenly on the opposite side of the fence on an issue I thought I was pretty set in my convictions about, I realized what is holding ME back from thinking this is the greatest thing that has ever happened to public school (besides me deciding to NEVER teach again)... The ONLY THING that I hate more than putting clothes away is...

IRONING!

HATE-IT-WITH-A-PASSION!!! School uniform screams "IRON ME!" Crazy right? I need to just get over it! "Move on Rachel! Snap out of it Crazy Lady!" says the school uniform. I am working on it, but it may take me awhile.

They are pretty cute... :)
