So here I am it's fall and I'm making all of these new goals - it's almost the Jewish new year you know - and as an almost Jew - it's not so crazy to set some goals. It's kind of ironic - that the normal calendar that we all follow - the one based on Christianity has it's New Year at the end of January. Normally everything about our set up revolves around the Christian calendar - but the Jewish New Year is in the fall - often in September - and doesn't it feel more natural? Fall is really more of a fresh start for all of us than January 1st - even for people who haven't been in school for years - and don't have children in school.
So things are really feeling new for me - Havalah is back in school In k5 at esquela Fratney with a new teacher and different kids. My fancy Nancy class has started up again with a fresh group of young princesses. I have started watching a handful of kids after school twice a week - and I am a "fashion consultant" for a new brand of kid's clothes called GenMarie. We sell at home shows like Tupperware or pampered chef. My mom used to sell Tupperware when I was a kid and I always thought it was pretty cool. My favorite was the little minature cup/pitcher set - like the tupperware aimed at kids - but doll size.
So here's a link to the GenMarie stuff - it's pricey but it's beautiful and it's all made here in the US. I don't know a ton of people locally that spend big sucks on kid's clothes so mostly I have been having "trunk shows" online.

And here's a couple of pictures of my girl wearing some GenMarie

Sometimes being a girl detective is hard work.
