Our beautiful Marilyn has some amazing talents. She cleans up well and is as cute as children come. She also provides the family with many opportunities of accidental humor.



This was the scene for our Sunday dinner. Mari was trying to be patient but a bit upset that we had not had dinner yet. She was tired and hungry which is not a good combination for her. We called everyone to the table and it didn't take long to realize that Mari got very quite in a very small amount of time.



She was out! Not a little bobbing of the head but gone.



It did not look very comfortable. Her head was slipping down the back of the chair until she used her nose as a wedge of sorts.



When she went to bed her nose looked okay. It was very red but it took the original shape without any help from Dad.



We went ahead a tried to have dinner as normal as we can. We at times have spontaneous singing, dance routines that start without warning, and weird noises coming from the boy so trying to balance a limp noddle of a 2 year old was not too much of a challenge. She did fall off her chair twice, in mid bite, with food going everywhere. She kept missing her mouth and getting frustrated that she was not getting fed. Eventually Dad had to take over.



If you can imagine, after dinner she caught a second wind and was running around looking for someone to wrestle with. She did not go to bed on time. This girl is wonderful to have around. She is cute enough she gets whatever she wants out of Dad. It seems we have more opportunities to laugh at/with this child than we have in the past.
