Leo's adorable children, Henry and Emily, both have tiles in this amazing community art project. Put "Masursky" in the search engine to see them.

Back to school shopping SUCKS

I spent all afternoon running errands - I am SICK of shopping!!! And it felt so pointless - the sneakers I got for Caleb don't fit, the healthfood store didn't have the GF food I wanted, and I had to go to SIX stores to find the clear plastic folders that Alana's teacher put on the school supply list. (These lists are absurd - why does a first grader need all this specialized stuff? A clipboard?!) Ugh. The silver lining is that Alana, who was along while Caleb et al went to see the movie Shorts, was a dream.

Alana's journal

Took Roxy for a walk in the park in the late afternoon and Alana brought along her new journal.

She's also wearing her new flip flops that we got to replace the crocs that she lost last weekend.
