All By Myself

First, an apology.  I have been having computer issues, and laziness issues, and vomiting issues (which is actually a pun, but perhaps it would be best not to parse too closely, because that would be needlessly graphic).  So I haven’t been posting as many pictures as I ought to.  I have been putting some up on facebook, so if people want to see pictures of Margaret, they can see them there.*

But that is a sad and pathetic excuse, even to me.

Anyway, it’s not like I have the excuse that Margaret is keeping me busy, because she’s becoming very self-sufficient.  Just yesterday she made her own breakfast.

Of course, she has been assiduously following the news, so she checked the nutritional information on the Nutella first.

The somewhat high sugar content, plus the fact that her hands aren’t big enough to get the lid off, contributed to her bypassing the spread (for which our furniture thanked her) and just having bread and milk.

This breakfast was pleasing to her, but she still wanted to check out what other people were having.

*And Mom, while I think that your desire to not intrude on the private space for your children that is Facebook is laudable, you ought also to realize that we are friends with EMILY and TRENT, and so we are already filtering ourselves more than we would be talking to you, so there’s really no reason, unless you’re just trying to avoid friends you successfully shook off half a century ago, in which case stop using us as an excuse and admit that you’re being anti-social.
