milla plum has this second grade project coming up where the kids are holding a school store and they need to make some product to sell for play money. we did some brainstorming and she decided on friendship bracelets. i was so excited because i used to love making friendship bracelets when i was her age. i remember making so many that my wrists would be covered in them. my friends and i would wear them for so long, like months, and they would get all dirty and stinky. haha. plum and i bought a rainbow assortment of embroidery thread in all of her favorite colors and tonight we got started. they take a lot longer to make than i remember. good thing she has a week until they are due. we will most likely be making them everynight until the school store opens. we need to make sixty. wish us luck.
