Margaret is big into helping other entities swing. We went to the park several weeks ago, and she took her kitty cat* with her and treated him to quite a good time.
And she didn’t let her solicitous behavior stop at the swings. She let the kitty listen to the sound of the American alligator.
And she let the kitty watch her drive the playground around.
And when, after an hour of tearing about the playground like a thing demented, she collapsed on the ground, she let the kitty lie there with her.
If my recollection is correct, little sisters are primarily valued for their ability to comprise a silent audience, so she’s certainly beginning as she means to go on.
*Incidentally, this kitty cat was intended for the top of her stocking, but it didn’t work out. I learned that it isn’t possible to take her with me when I do her Christmas shopping, which was no doubt an important lesson to learn.
