Hey everybody. This is Sophie and welcome to episode 457 of the Big Boo cast.

On this episode, Melanie and I have some frustrations.

And we talk about those frustrations.

We talk about them candidly.

We have some feelings from all different areas of life.

So please do enjoy as far as all that goes.

We also talk about a couple of things that

have brought me all manner of joy this past week. And it's Melanie's turn for five favorites.

hey everybody this is Sophie this is boo Hey, it's Melanie. It's Big Mama. Well, our children are officially back in school. It is back to school for the Hudson's and the shankles. Yes, it is. As I just told Caroline, happy first day of 17th grade is where we are. Yes, Alex is happy

first day of 16th grade. And I really haven't talked to him at all today, except he asked me if I

thought he should renew his Costco membership. So the issues are different when they're a senior in college than maybe they are

when they were a freshman in high school.

I'm glad Caroline couldn't hear this because the amount of times that she has lamented

that our family never had a Costco membership.

Listen, I'll put that baby on mine.
