I recently came across my friend ironing her son's school smock. taken aback that someone would actually take the time to iron something that is intended to take the splatters of paint and spots of mud that happen at school, I started secretly eying the smocks of all the other children as they headed to school on Monday mornings; and guess what? it's true! I think I'm the only mother who does not iron her child's school smock!
Well, Malachai does not go to school this week, and since I have an entire week to plan for his next Monday. I will iron! . . . just for fun . . .

Hola Naomi!
My name is Monica and I love your blog! It totally reflects your very nice personality...I live in the US, married to an American but I was born in Mexico.
I'd love to start a long-distance friendship so when you visit the US you have a friend or more, and likewise when I visit Spain (I hope!)
Congratulations on a wonderful life and family!
My blog is monica-ciszczon.blogspot.com
Saludos,
Monica

Martha said she used to iron diapers. Not me - I'm feeling good to get them washed and dried before we run out!
