We Love Lindsay

Lindsay & Jane
Last fall, Claire signed up for the MSPCA's Walk for Animals, and the girls and I participated (with Ollie and Hugo, of course).  Later, we were talking about the walk, and about fundraising in general.  Although Jane lost interest after learning that you don't actually get to keep any of the money you raise, Margot was ready to plan ahead for next time:

Margot:  "Mommy, if we do the Walk for Animals again, can we all do it?  It would be more fun if there was one parent for each kid."

Me (silently puzzling over the math, given that we have three children and two parents): "Hmm.  How would that work?"

Margot:  "You know, like Claire goes with Dad, Jane goes with you, and I go with Lindsay."
