Shoplifting


This should be in addition to our last post at Hallmark when the soap spilled on Isabella's head! As we left from Hallmark and were driving down the road (unnamed daughter) was telling me about these cards she got at Hallmark with people's names on them. Ok, ok, that should have been the first sign to me that something didn't sound right but as it typically is with me when I have a lot on my mind I kinda tuned out what she was really saying and was like 'uh huh'. I did hear her mention 'free' in her conversation though. We got to Shannon's house and she started bringing me these cards that had different people's names on them. I put two and two together to realize they were what she was talking about on the car ride and that they didn't look like they would be free at all!!! I went back to Hallmark today to pay for them, all 12!!! It came to $13.00 of name cards. Thank you to my wonderful child whom will remain nameless but she is a city in England! I loved splurging on these cards that are of absolute no use!!! haha.

Please notice though how sweet she was to get a card with my name on it!!!

I have had a similiar experience with Braeden. He was only like 5 or 6, I think...and it was a keychain at Old Navy. I took him back to talk to the manager and to apologize. I think he learned his lesson. He hasn't done it since....at least that I know of.

Angie, no in that entire pile there is no 'Angie' but Ken said she would have gotten you one. :) She really did think they were free! It is pretty funny, but not the $13.00 part. She would go back and get you one but I said 'no'. :) Sorry.
