**Cocoa & Pajama Day tomorrow!!**
Bring your favorite mug and wear some cozy pajamas, a bathrobe, or slippers.  
(Make pajamas are appropriate for school - one idea is to wear them over other clothes. You also need to have clothes and shoes for gym tomorrow. If you wish, you may bring a blanket and pillow to get extra comfortable during the movie.  :-)
