Auqa Velva Man



Jordan went off to his first day of school today much like all of the other 4th graders, except for one thing, he was sporting Aqua Velva, cool ice aftershave. His two big brothers have been wearing cologne for some time and just recently Jord-o has been asking me to pick some up for him. While I was in SanDiego I saw some on sale for $3.00 and brought it home for him. He woke up at 5:30 am this morning, showered, shampooed and literally immersed himself in the blue liquid. I thought maybe it would wear off a little bit before school at 8:00 am, and if it did, I either didn't notice or my scent glands had already gone into overload. I hope his teacher has a window he can open! I will have to find a gentle way to teach Jord moderation, but if he keeps using it at this rate anyway, he'll be out of it by Friday. What a cute kid.

I love it! If he is trying to impress the ladies, I think the amount of Aqua Velva is doing the opposite!!! :)) You always have the best stories!

Jordan has such good role models ahead of him, he knows exactly what to do! I'm sure all the young ladies in the 4th grade have a serious crush on him!
