remember the other day, when i got those pictures of harry. the ones that i didn't order. the ones that he wasn't happy about. i kept wondering WHY a company would send them home, hoping i'd order more...

i was supposed to send them back, or send in a check to cover the cost. good thing the teacher included a note in harry's back pack. good thing the pictures made it home unscathed. good thing i scanned my own copy.

i just want to complain about this though. i mean, really. who trusts anything in a second graders backpack? do they not realize that it is a miracle that things make it home anyway. most papers are mutilated and destroyed just by being in the backpack. then the journey home. i hate that our elementary school does this. i hate it very much. if i didn't have the pictures to send back, i would have got a bill. and outrageous sum of money for pictures i didn't want in the first place. i think it is shady business. i'm not even a big fan of school pictures in the first place! add to that this second picture day, and i'm a pretty unhappy mom. even though i sent them back, i still would have rather the whole thing never happened.
