Diary of a Crossing Guard, Day WHO KNOWS?!

One of the parents in the crosswalk today made my morning with the following:

"Where were you yesterday morning? I missed having eye candy in the crosswalk."

Thank you, dear parent. I've come a long way these past few months in abandoning the frumpy mom persona I'd taken on and began anew to fix my hair, wear cute clothes and put on makeup. I know appearance isn't everything, but having my efforts noticed made my day.
