I think it was one of my finest mother moments yet - bringing out a shoebox of "things that go with blouses, dresses, and shirts" in an attempt to keep Girlie stimulated for more than ten minutes. Well, folks, it worked! And it worked BETTER THAN a charm! This random mix of fabrics kept Nory occupied (and laughing hysterically) for a good chunk of the day. The ribbons and strings were thrown, tasted, shaken, dragged, tangled, shared and AWESOME. "SNAKEY-SNAKEY" was the best part - the game where we both held an end to a string and wiggled it back and forth along the ground. Dolly was a real sport and hopped over it each time it came her way. This created some top-notch hysteria in the Parkinson house that Phil managed to capture on video. If my computer had the ability to accept new megabites of stuff, I'd share it with you. Perhaps you could plan a visit here and witness the whole thing yourself instead? Yes, I like that idea best. Hmmm.....maybe that's the key to attracting guests to this attraction-less place: withholding NORY MEDIA. AHHHH!!!
Just kidding. I'm not that mean. But university IS expensive these days. And making you pay for Nory pics could be an even FINER mommy moment than my last. MWUA, HAA, HAAA!
Dear Ribbons and Strings, thanks for making our living room a giggly, happy mess this aft. Although you're a nice addition to some of my work attire, I think you've earned a permanent place in the E.D. toybox. CONGRATS!
