Don't Try This At Home

All parents know the familiar glance we all exchange.

You know how it goes, you see another parent out with their child, who is adorable, and you smile at them, then at their mother or father. Or maybe the child is acting up a bit, and you give their parent a sympathetic look. Or maybe the little boy or girl said something cute, and you laughed out loud, smiling at the child’s parent. You get the point.

I was getting a lot of those glances when standing in line for the teacups at Disney World with Greg and the boys. Yet, I wasn’t sure why. The kids weren’t really doing anything cute, per say, and fortunately they were behaving as well.

So why all the stares?

My husband figured it out before me, when he tugged hard at the back of my tank top, where a large pricetag was still attached.

The bad news? I didn’t set any new fashion trends that day. The good news?

I got the top on clearance.

At least it was at Disney World where you probably aren't well known versus a store in Indy where people would have known who you were, right??

Deb, you're not alone. I accidently left a price tag on a blouse and wore it to a business dinner with my husband's company! Egads... embarassing.
