Over For Dinner

Esmé and her dad came over for dinner and a chance for me to give her our birthday gifts: 3 books, the workbook clearly the favorite. She loves the water mister, but not the dried lawn so much, especially in bare feet. Later, we read books. When it came time to go home, she disappeared under the bed quilt, so I wrapped her it in, put her on the carpet, and rolled her around for awhile; strange, the things that thrill a kid.
