Midday Rider



Dear Laney,


Your dad and I are working hard to be included in the next Guinness Book Of World Records under the heading, "Most House Guests In One Summer." We're so advanced that we put Karen and Sam on a plane that departed at 1:00pm, and then picked up Grandpops and Grammy CC when they landed at 1:32p.


As a general policy, I don't mention the gifts that you receive from grandparents on this blog. Not because we don't appreciate them - in fact, we know we're incredibly blessed - but because your grandparents are all competitive people and there's only so much square footage in our house. We don't want anyone to feel they're doing more/less than anyone else; you have way more than you need, end of story.


But once in a while, a gift comes along that is so audacious that it must be addressed. While your dad and I went to an appointment at the Dr's office to check on your sibling, we left you with your visiting grandparents and Uncle Nate. You guys were probably unsupervised for only two hours or so, and still you managed to come home with this:




Lord have mercy on any small animals or retaining walls that get in your way.


Love,
Mom
