A Litte Sucking Up Goes a Long Way

Anna, a benevolent lazy sort who’s barely pulling a D in my class, looked up from her literature circle discussion on Friday and said, “Hey, Ms. W.? Have you ever seen Gilmore Girls.”

“Um, ye-ah,” I said, smiling. “I’ve never missed an episode. I love that show.”

“Me too!” she squealed. “So, did you know you look exactly like Rory? Ever since I’ve had you, I can’t watch her without thinking about it.”

“Ok, Anna?” I said, stunned with happiness. “Wait right here while I grab my grade book and assign you the A+ you so clearly deserve.”

Is that a picture of you or Alexis? It is hard to tell.

It IS hard to tell. The only difference I can see is that SavvyMom actually looks alive.

She's right. Especially in the eyes.

I recently saw a picture of you on jdocs fridge and did a doubletake. Thought she'd received a christmas card from Alexis.
