Unexpected moment of parental amusement #2874

I had hoped to write about Iowa by now, but the house-plague has kind of stymied that idea. I will do it, most likely I'll break the subject into two pieces. ONce about Grandma and one about the rest of the visit.

Instead, for now, meet Lillian’s favorite new toy ‘Spyda’. It’s a giant cheap Halloween spider that I bought for myself, but which she claimed as her own before we had even reached the car. As you can see, she is rather attached. I wish I had a movie of the *one* time Thomas tried to play with Spyda. A mistake he is unlikely to repeat.





…I reckon I’ll have to buy another if I actually want one.
