Saturday

What a lovely Saturday morning! The temperature is only showing as 40ish on the outdoor thermometer, but it surely feels warmer than that.

Carla has enjoyed me being home this morning. Running in and out almost at whim. She sure likes laying in the grass in a nice sunny spot.

Walt took me out for a nice lunch at the Thai restaurant this afternoon. It was very nice as usual. They also remembered us and gave us extra special attention. They even sent Walt home with a take out Thai tea! After we got home we've been watching Pearl Harbour and I've finally gotten around to taking down the Christmas decorations! Hard to believe, I know, but definitely about time.

This one is too funny!

A Toddler's Tea Party!!

One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me and my brother who is four years older than I am. I was maybe 1 and a half years old and had just recovered from an accident in which my arm had been broken among other injuries.

Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my favorite toys. Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news and my brother was playing nearby in the living room when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea', which was just water. After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home. My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch
me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!!'

My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she watches him drink it up, then says, 'Did it ever occur to you that the only place that baby can reach to get water is the toilet??'
