Margaret The Notorious Glasses Snatcher

Matters have reached a crisis in the Human household (well, not exactly in the Human household, since I'm in Washington with Margaret and Leo is still in St. Louis, but it sounds way more portentous when put that way).

Margaret is interested in faces and grabbing things and pulling and putting things in her mouth.

This spells doom for the glasses, and as I'm sure you all know, both Leo and I are glasses wearing people.*

And now she has started grabbing them and putting them on herself.**


And she tried to get a better look at her fingers - always puzzling, you know - through them.


But her good intentions were foiled, because she had taken her cousin Hannah's glasses, and they aren't real.  Well, they're real - I mean, they exist, obviously, because you can't balance things on your nose that don't exist - but they aren't corrective; they're just clear glass.  So no new information regarding the mysterious fingers was collected.

*Poor Margaret may be doomed to poor eyesight, though I have really, really good vision.  In one eye.  And really, really bad vision in the other.  Perhaps she will take after my left eye.

**This is a flat-out lie, incidentally.
