A couple of days ago, I stopped by a nutrition store to purchase some ginger for our cruise.  It is said to help with motion sickness.  I took some on our first cruise a couple of years ago and wanted some again – just in case.

I told Ellie we were going to run into a store to pick something up for my cruise.  Her face lit up, “Oh, are you getting some new earrings?”  Not sure where that came from, but continuing the chit-chat I said no, but, gee, I would like to get a new outfit before I leave on the trip.

She said, “I know!  You should get a pirate outfit.  A Mommy pirate outfit for your cruise.”

Some days I just shake my head.
