Silly Miss Lilly filled a toy fireman's hat with golf balls, and before we realized what she was doing, she promptly turned it over and put it on her head, all the balls fell out, and one rolled down her leg and "bonked" her on her left toes. Her Newton's Law education was sad, yet funny, especially when you looked at her shocked face.
ROFL!
One Sunday while Lilly sat beside me in church, she was looking at a map in back of the Bible.
She trailed her index finger over the dotted line from Jerusalem through the Mediterranean and up. I explained, "That's the path Apostle Paul took."
She asked, "Did he go everywhere?"
Then running her palm over the brown section, "Is this the desert?"
"Yes," I whispered.
She says, "I don't see any camels."
ROFL
So we're back to January of 2020, Miss Lilly is 4. Have you heard of Hatchimals? I didn't know such things existed. I guess if you put the egg in water it dissolves to reveal a toy animal. In this case Miss Lilly had a bunny rabbit called Bun Bun. Well, Bun Bun had a rough life this day.
First, it got retrieved from the car 'cause of sad kid, then it got picked up off the floor from under the tables at the restaurant, then it got squished by grandpa in the couch cushion once home, and finally, a most mortifying betrayal of all, Bun Bun was picked up by a child's grabber toy, and swung about the room in a neck grip!
"LILLY! Put that down", said dad as she took one last twirl!
ROFL
It was a pretty, sunny, warm day. We needed a walk. So I took Miss Lilly to a nearby garage sale and bought her a xylophone. There were two. To decide which to buy we sat on chairs nearby that were for sale and just played and played until she had her fill. We picked the prettiest sounding one.
This was the most fun of all, just sitting and chillin' with my clever, gentle, funny granddaughter; making sweet music.
