This morning while talking to Ruthie about getting dressed for school.........
Ruthie: "Mommy, maybe I can go to bed at night with my school clothes on then I won't have to get changed in the morning!"
Man, I like the way that girl thinks...
I totally knew my "sleeping in my clothes" would take the world by storm one day. I couldn't be any more proud.
****For the "non" camp readers.... Back in the day, I was the QUEEN of sleeping in my clothes. I due to laziness, thoughtfulness, resourcefulnees, etc. (you fill in the blanks as to what I could have been up to...) I would sleep in my clothes, that way when the flagpole bell would ring....I would only need to roll out of bed, attend flagpole, go back to my cabin, take a shower and still make it to breakfast. That extra time that sleeping in my clothes alotted was PRICELESS!!!!!!! Seeing as I was at camp for 7 years, all that saved time has really made a huge contribution to my overall happiness.
****Another reminder for the "non" camp readers...... I worked at camp from the time I was 19 to the time I was 26. Clearly, beyond the time of sleeping in one's clothes. Again, I am so proud this way of thinking is taking the world by storm!

HAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! love it! she is almost ready for those crazy nights at camp! that is awesome.
although she is planning ahead... we were just lazy/drunk. ha.
that is great, and so you and if that is an indication of things to come you are in big trouble!
as a *camp person* who stood at that flagpole with you for one summer, i have to testify that i never, not even once, suspected that you had appeared in front of me in clothing you had slept in the night before. but then again, i constantly showed up to flagpole in my pjs so....who am i to judge?
i concur with leslie! i never knew your "secret" :) and yes, i am totally guilty of pjs to flagpole/breakfast. the best part of my second summer was watching the new counselors get all dressed up and look cute for flagpole the first week or so...then they learned :) those extra minutes of sleep are priceless.
