Maisie and Yoda Beth
My granddaughter Maisie visited us over the Memorial Day weekend. I had wanted her to meet several of the kids in the neighborhood, but people were busy or out of town. Maisie ended up spending her time with Yoda Beth, our Calico cat and Skye, the border collie.
Maisie was riding her trike on the sidewalk, when Skye took off running down the street. Haleigh, 5 yrs, who lives across the street, took off running after her. "I'll catch her!", she yelled. In a minute Haleigh and Skye both arrived on the porch out of breath. Maisie was thrilled to have another little girl around, and asked her if she could play. Haleigh had just gotten out of the pool and was wearing her swimsuit, holding what looked like dance clothes. I asked her, "Do you have dance in a few miniutes?"
She shook her head no, as she started to put on the clothes she was holding. Over the swimsuit went her leggings, then her pink tutu. Seeing the leotard still on the ground, I asked, "Aren't you putting them on in the wrong order?" Again she shook her head no, then said, "Oh watch, it will all work out."
Then on top of the swimsuit, leggings and tutu, she slipped the leotard over the top of everything, with a slight bulge from the tutu around her waist. Then off she and Maisie went down the sidewalk--guess it did "Work out."
