Earth Day--according to Chloe


Chloe overheard me talking about Earth Day on the phone to someone. I was talking about all the Earth Day promotions and how I wanted to use some of the giveaways for my Teacher Appreciation Week this year. Anyway, when I was off the phone Chloe asked me what Earth Day was. I told her it was a day that people did things to make the Earth more beautiful. She then told me that she wanted to do something special for Earth Day too. I told her "Great! Go think about something to do." About an hour later I found her outside with her friend on my front lawn very near the sidewalk. They had two chairs and a table set up. They had a sign taped to the edge of the table. The table was COVERED in makeup (Chloe's play makeup). I went out there and demanded to know what they were doing. Chloe told me this, "Well, we are actually selling makeup. But I am not actually going to GIVE them makeup. They are going to pay me a dollar and then I will let them use my makeup or I can just put my makeup on them if they want." "What?? Why are you doing this again Where is this all coming from?" "This is for Earth Day. We are making the Earth more beautiful!"

Wow! That's all I can say. Who would think that putting makeup on people would be a perfect Earth Day contribution? Oh, my!

Little girls are the best! She is quite the buisness woman! Somehow I don't think that you would have thought to put makeup on people to "beautify the earth" at her age!:) I might have though!:)
