I do remember however this one kid borrowed a crayon from me and, to my horror, started to eat it. To this day, I’m leery of lending things!!!

Treat yourself to something extra special today. You deserve it. Maybe you should pull out some crayons, take a nap, read a good story and have a delicious, nutritious snack.
