<p>Congrats to you tammy for doing the hardest thing ever, keeping your lip zipped when you needed to! </p>
<p>By the way, I literally "zipped my lip" on a recent college tour. When the tour was starting, I realized it was quite cold and as a bent my head over and zipped up my winter coat -- OUCH. I zipped my lip. So was dabbing my bleeding lip with a kleenex for the entire tour. The tour guide and other parents/students graciously pretended not to notice. Fortunately my daughter was elsewhere (visiting a class) at the time. She would have been mortified. When she saw me, she jsut says, "Mom, what did you do to your lip?"</p>
<p>Okay, I'm from CA. I haven't had much practice zipping up a winter coat with a hood for the past three decades . . . :)</p>
