The Money Tree has dried up

So we got turned down for financial aid from J’s school. Now we’re applying for a grant. I have to write an essay about why we deserve the grant. What I would REALLY like to say is that it’s a great school, but no kindergarten class should cost the equivalent of a college eduction. Therefore, you should give us a price break. And because I’m the class parent & bust my ass for the 4/5yo’s, we should get a break. Just this year...and next...and with all our kids. I’m also going to write it in crayon.

Coincidentally, 6 girls from J’s school are in her ballet class. Of course, Nina’s mom is a ballet teacher who told us all about the ballet class.
L – R Dahlia, Lilly, Ellie, Nina, J, Annabel, Grace. What a surprise, J is flanked by her posse Nina & Annabel. As you can see, this pic is from my camera phone, so that’s what I got!
