The birthday boy!

Ben’s birthday dinner piled on the birthday plate…he ate all that
Monday was Abby’s 4th birthday. I’d intended to post, but I didn’t get around to it!
The other day, all the little kids got new socks and underwear. Abby was telling me about her new underwear. “They work,” she said.
Then she was telling Mom that she has her “out to town socks” and her “out to town underwear”. Mom said “I don’t think you need ‘out to town underwear’, because nobody would see them!”
And she said “They’ll see them in the holes of my shoes!”
And Mom said “No, those are your socks!”
Also, evidently, Abby has an imaginary friend named Mayna, who whom she says is her twin. Beth said Abby’s Mayna voice is funny, so I was trying to get her to speak in it. “Have Mayna say hi,” I said. She just giggled. “Can Mayna come over?”
“She lives far away,” Abby said.
“Can’t you ask her to come?” I asked.
“Her mom always says no,” Abby said.
For her birthday dinner she had rice, alfredo sauce, and grilled chicken and shrimp. It was soooo good!
She’s pretty proud that she’s allowed in the kitchen and on the tile now that she’s four!
Especially when one hasn’t much to write about, or doesn’t know what to write about! See the end of the post for the best parts though. ^_^


Another view. The blade is made out of an old saw blade, the guard is a cross of copper, and the handle is a naturally-shaped antler. Uncomfortable to hold, but awesome to put on a shelf and look at!
