Surprise!

Not that anyone is reading anymore - but in case you are - here are two Luke stories and a Sadie story...

My dad came to town last night and had dinner with me and John and his family. Well, Luke, the 4 year old was telling us about where Santa and the elves live - "Did you know that there is this white mountain next to the desert and that is the North Pole." He later stated that "Chris (the 16 year old) said he wants to be just like me." Out of the mouth of babes... or in this case... one rowdy little kid.

It was a nice evening - I had a good time at the end of the table chatting with Chris and Emilie (13 years old). And it was, of course, really nice to see my dad - he stayed with me - so my house got a quick cleaning - before the major cleaning that will have to take place before my Aunt comes a week from Saturday.

And now for the Sadie story... When my dad got up and left - I decided I would head out to the gym - and when I got home - I looked and looked for Sadie - couldn't find her in any of her usual spots - the quilt, the afghan, the window seat... so I'm standing between the living room and dining room and say out loud - "Where are you baby doll?" and she answered with a little murmer - she was in the cat tree! She was probably watching me the whole time I was looking around.

Enough for now - must get ready for work.
