So this is Kayla, look at her. So adorable and sweet. Ballerina is from a few years ago and the other one with me is like 4 months ago maybe.
I took her to Costco with me so I could meet up with Kimball and look for a bathing suit for her. Of course, Costco is renouned for their sample stations. That's basically why I got a Costco card, to live off free samples from here on out. Well, there was a pork sample station in the meat section. It smelled good, I try to encourage her to try new things especially since she's a picky eater and so I offered her the pork. Kayla is Jewish. I'm a loose bag. So Kimball was the one who realized and stopped me from giving her the rest of the portion. She then exclaims, "Hey I like this! What is it?" Long pause. Laura: "Uhhhh.. it's chicken." Then I told her we would eat later but not now, not at these silly sample stations no one should fill up on or live off of. She persisted. So I broke down, "Kayla, it's pork. You can't eat it, right?" Kayla: "Mmmmmyeeeeah." So that was it for the pork. I felt bad, Kimball said that's like giving coffee to a Mormon kid, I felt worse (but laughed!) and we were on our way down the aisle when lo and behold a RABBI IS PASSING BY. It was all I could bear before I realized, oops, it's 5:30, we better go pick up her sister Ally from Hebrew School now.

i'm going shopping with you....maybe you could take me down the margarita aisle?
just kidding...
you know, kim...it's a darn good thing we are mormon because i can totally see us being margarita buddies. And though I'm sure we'd have a great time, we'd also undoubtedly get ourselves into lots of trouble!!!
and as for you, Hobo...I am shocked and appalled. I've got CPS on speed dial, and you're my next victim.
btw: kayla really is the sweetest thing. she's got this squeaky little voice.
My Mom always says that she was meant to be Mormon because she doesnt know how to do things in moderation. That if she drank alcohol, she would be a complete lush. Dear mommy.
Amen to the mormon thing. I'd be drinkin' till the cows came home if I weren't a good little mormon girl.
I love Kayla. We want a little girl just like her.
Sure Kim, any time. I'll take you to sample alley. I'll be sure and leave Kimball at home so we can sin in our "ignorance".
