I’m offering to chaperone Chloe’s class trip to a local museum next month. After years of begging me to chaperone one of her trips, I’m finally biting the bullet and volunteering.
OK – she’s in second grade. Why has it taken me so long, you may ask? For one, the school doesn’t need chaperones for most outings. Second, it’s easy to find excuses when one is working full-time.
But I’m starting to see the years go by. Before I know it, my girls will be too old for school trips or at least too old to want me to join them on school trips. Now’s my chance to make yet another memory before it’s too late. It should be an interesting day.
