Signed Epstein's Mother

Yesterday, I wanted to pick my kids up from school rather than let them go to after school care. It was the evening of my daughter's big Father-Daughter Dance --a very special night on the calendar.

So anyway I wanted Peg home early so we could spend time getting her ready for the big dance. Hair, nails and enjoying some tea together.

My son then wanted to come home too. I'd already written the note to my daughter's teacher. So as I'm running to the shower, my daughter says "I'll write the note."

I said yes. But added she must not sign it but leave space for my signature.

As I added my flourish to the note written in orange crayon, I wondered if this is how Epstein of Welcome Back Kotter got his start.
